About

The Kaneko Hannosuke brand is synonymous with the revival of Edo-style tempura tendon in Japan, serving at its flagship in Nihonbashi Tokyo to queues that define the genre. Having won seven consecutive Tendon Gold Awards in Japan, the brand carries an unambiguous reputation for quality in its home market. The Hong Kong operations — with four confirmed locations listed on the official brand website — replicate the Japanese formula: perfectly light batter enveloping premium ingredients (prawn, conger eel, mushroom, soft-boiled egg, seaweed), served in a lacquer-style bowl over steamed white rice and doused in a rich, dark tare sauce. Prices remain exceptional for the quality, with signature tendon sets from HK$118 to HK$138. The brand's Instagram account (@hannosuke.hk) confirms active marketing and operations across all four HK locations.
