Japanese Donburi Chain 'Tsujihan' Opens First Thailand Location
Renowned Japanese restaurant Tsujihan has launched its first Thai branch at Central Park, drawing significant crowds for its signature seafood volcano bowls.
According to a report by Khaosod Online Thailand, the popular Japanese restaurant chain Tsujihan has officially opened its first location in Thailand. Situated on the 5th floor of Central Park, near the Roof Park exit, the establishment began operations in mid-July 2026.
The restaurant is best known for its 'Zeitaku-don,' a high-quality seafood bowl featuring a variety of ingredients such as salmon roe, diced maguro, minced tuna, fresh shrimp, squid, whelk, geoduck, and herring roe. These ingredients are arranged in a distinctive volcano shape atop hot Japanese rice, garnished with roasted sesame seeds, seaweed, shiso leaves, and fresh wasabi. A unique aspect of the dining experience is the 'Ochazuke' finish, where diners can add hot broth to the remaining rice in their bowl.
For residents and travelers, the restaurant has generated significant interest, with reports of customers waiting in queues for two to three hours. While the menu focuses on these signature bowls, customers can opt for premium additions like snow crab or sea urchin, which adjust the price point accordingly. As the restaurant is currently experiencing high demand, potential visitors should be prepared for long wait times. It remains to be seen how the establishment will manage the sustained influx of customers as the initial excitement settles.
