This is behind the counter of a local family owned Japanese Teishoku " Set Meal" restaurant called Shokudo Morikawa. Nestled within walking distance from Tokyo University, the oldest university in Japan, it’s been a staple nourishment for students for more than 120 years. The shop originally started selling bento boxes on the University campus distributing them with a carrying pole aka milkmaid’s yoke, and later grew into a Teishoku restaurant meaning it serves Japanese set meals, where all of the dishes in the course are served together often consisting of a main dish, rice, soup and sides. Today, the shop serves not only Japanese school students food, but also locals and salarymen alike all lining up to enjoy their delectable and affordable set meals. If you are search where to eat in Tokyo or what to do in Tokyo, this hidden gem would be a great place to eat lunch.

I am the man interviewed in the video. Sushi and tempura are great, but I hope you also enjoy the local "Teishoku" culture when you come to Japan!
-
Oh Paolo, I went to this restaurant frequently when I was university student, it was almost 30 years ago! This was called "Mori-shoku" among students and was VERY popular at that time also. I'm living in Kobe now so your video brings back memories of my good old days. Thank you so much!
-
I still wanna see a day in Paolo's life and how he makes these videos. Always wondered how he does some of these clips we see
-
It would be such a shame if a place like this, with such a long history, would have to shut down... I hope he does find someone who would take it over!
-
What a great family establishment! Such a shame to think it might close one day. Such a humble loving man the owner is.
-
Can we just stop and appreciate Paolo and Maiko for getting up so early to film this especially with them having young Wolfie to look after
-
40 years of dedication. Impressive. May he have many more years of success.
-
Paolo, I have greatly enjoyed, not only this story, but the way you blend documentary style with casual interview. I'm sure you put your guest at ease; and the comfortable vibe serves to draw us into the narrative. Thanks for this video, I enjoyed it. Would love to drop in for a meal the next time I'm in Japan.

6:36 “He told me he’d cook for me. So I married him.” Take notes boys, knowing how to cook is a viable pickup strategy. I speak from experience too 😂
-
Paolo. Can I just say how much I appreciate the ‘day in the life’ series - must take so much time to get permissions and plan - but always so incredibly interesting and inspiring
-
I love that they sit down and eat together at the end 🥹 one of the few jobs where "we're one big family" isn't a lie or a red flag!
-
I've been cooking for years, and as a bit of a hermit who still values socialization, I would gladly take over a business like this. Sad that it has to go but what it ride it must have been.
-
One thing that I learnt from your video and the people on the video is that YOU SHOULD LOVE YOUR JOB. Every job is tiring but if you love it, you enjoy it, the job will be not that hard, the job will be fun. The appreciation comes from others but if we are grateful for that appreciation, we will work even more to maintain our legacy. Thank you for this video, Paolo. I will register myself not to give up and enjoy every moment.
-
The power failure literally gave me a heart-attack. I could feel his tension and worry.
-
Paolo, love your videos. Im a landscaper here in the US, and I admire the Japanese clean landscaping and tree work. Would love to see a day in the life of either a Japanese landscaper or arborist.
-
I was a chef for 14 years. I think i sat with my chef and co workers maybe once or twice in all those years for a meal. Its so crazy to see kitchen culture in Japan and how different it is from here. Breaks my heart to see his business not being taken over by the next generation as it has propspered for so long. If i knew the language id drop everything to help that man. Great video as always Paolo
-
One of my friends lives in Japan and her daughter is a university student at Tokyo University. She always talks about the food being good so I told her about your video. She quite enjoyed seeing behind the counter with her daughter since she went to school here back in the early 2000s. 😊 And 44 years is so long. A congrats to both on a successful marriage.
-
Paolo casually dropping words like "No cap" and "aight bet" just catches me off-guard every time, I love it!
-
College kids in Japan are lucky! That food looks so delicious and nutritious unlike the fast food on offer around the university I went to in the states. Thanks for the fun video!
