Ougiya is Tokyo's oldest specialist tamagoyaki shop, trading since 1648 near Oji Station. It is a takeaway-only counter with a modest, unassuming storefront — famous as the setting of the classic rakugo story "The Fox of Oji." The family recipe for its signature thick, slightly sweet egg roll (atsuyaki tamago) has been passed down through generations and kept secret for over 300 years. Behind the shop, customers can eat their tamagoyaki on benches in the nearby Otonashigawa Shinsui Park.
