About this place
When you want a nutritious meal with an eye on carbs, Medicafe on the 1F of Ochanomizu Igaku Kaikan in Yushima is a dependable stop. A crowd favourite is the salt-koji grilled chicken rice plate, featuring daily grilled chicken that stays tender and moist, accompanied by low-carb multigrain rice, 2 daily deli sides, fresh salad, and a mushroom soy milk soup. Generously laden with vegetables and broth, it makes for a filling meal that still leaves you feeling light.
The plate options are varied, allowing you to tailor your meal to your appetite and how you feel that day. Choices range from low-carb bread sandwiches with chicken and soy cheese to low-carb croissant plates and soy meat avocado keema curry. For traditional Japanese tastes, there is a grilled salmon rice ball plate with low-carb multigrain rice, as well as a colourful salad bowl for those seeking a heavy helping of greens. To finish or to enjoy during tea time, seasonal fruit parfaits and Greek yogurt are available alongside house-made lemonade and spiced tea.
Inside, the calm interior is decorated in clean white tones, featuring counter seats that suit solo visitors, window-facing seats, free Wi-Fi, and power outlets. On pleasant days, outdoor terrace seating is also available, making it a handy haven for passing time while waiting for appointments at nearby hospitals, resting before or after a clinic visit, or taking a peaceful break during a neighbourhood stroll.
