\nMeanwhile, back at Industry City\u2019s Japan Village (934 3rd Ave in Brooklyn) my dining buddy had set his sights on Moriya\u2019s Oyako Don, donburi with boiled chicken leg and simmered egg. Boiled Chicken! \ud83e\udd22 My thoughts harkened back to childhood dinners at my grandmother\u2019s house and her rubbery boiled chicken. \u201cIt\u2019s healthy!\u201d she shrilled as if that somehow made it edible, although I was relieved that at least the poor hen wasn\u2019t ill before its demise.<\/p>\n

But having survived it, I decided that this rendition would surely be better and I\u2019m pleased to report that it was, and significantly so. Tender and flavorful, pairing perfectly with the egg (a little culinary nepotism there) those two ingredients (along with some oomph from scallions and pickled ginger) had to be persuasive enough to carry the dish. And it worked; satisfying comfort food.
