Introducing our new Teishoku (定食) at KIBOU Oxford. A Japanese set meal (that’s literally the translation) that we think is going to make our restaurant the best place in Cambridge for lunch.
You’ll find Teishoku menus pretty much the width and breadth of Japan – they’re a staple in numerous restaurants and cafes across the county.
And what do they entail? Well, the individual elements may vary from location to location, but the make-up of the whole menu remains pretty much the same.
Main plate + Sides + Rice + Soup
For our lunchtime Teishoko menu, you’ll find classics such as prawn tempura or chasu kushiyaki (pork belly skewers), chicken karaage or kabocha korokke (pumpkin croquettes. Served with a bowl of furikake rice, edamame beans, pickles, yamagoyaki (Japanese omelette), goma wakame, and a bowl of homemade miso soup.
Quite a feast we hear you say! Absolutely, the design of the menu is based on the typical “ichiju sansai” style of home-cooking, meaning, ‘one soup, three dishes’, the Japanese route to a well-balanced diet.
And the price of our Teishoku is pretty appetising too!
Just £17.50, and available Tuesday to Friday from 12pm to 3.30pm.

* Mains are served as small plates or smaller versions of our large plates without accompaniments.
