和食レストランとんでんTonden (Japanese Restaurant)

A contents page listing the categories is on page 2, so you can find which page holds the table you need before scrolling. In each table the dish name is at the left, followed by the nutrition columns and then the 27 allergen columns. Because the update date differs page by page, check the date in the corner of the table you are reading rather than a date for the document as a whole. In particular, 'soba / udon' (page 4) — the page you are sent to about swapping noodles — is the oldest of the 27, updated on October 6, 2023.

The table covers 27 items. All 9 items whose disclosure is legally mandatory in Japan (egg, milk, wheat, buckwheat, peanut, shrimp, crab, walnut, cashew nut) have a column, as do 18 of the recommended items (abalone, squid, salmon roe, orange, kiwi fruit, beef, sesame, salmon, mackerel, soybean, chicken, pork, matsutake mushroom, peach, yam, apple, gelatin, banana). There is no column for almond, macadamia nut or pistachio, so this table cannot answer for those. The following optional extras are excluded from the allergen markings: milk portions, stick sugar, gum syrup, soy sauce, dressing, tempura bits, shichimi pepper, takeout soy sauce and takeout miso soup. They appear on 'optional dipping sauces and condiments' (page 3). In other words each row's marks describe the dish without whatever you add yourself. Tempura dipping sauce, matcha salt, soba/udon dipping sauce, sauce, ponzu, tartar sauce and takeout sauce are listed in item 9 on the cover as items excluded from the nutrition figures (their rows are on page 3). Some contamination warnings carry a mark and some are prose only. Five are prose only: three on the cover and two on the low-allergen menu page (page 6). (1) The data is theoretical, drawn from an ingredient survey, so allergens may adhere or get mixed in during factory production or during cooking at the store — the document does not separate the two. (2) Soba and udon are boiled in the same kettle, so udon may pick up buckwheat. (3) Soy-based sauces and dipping broths, which contain wheat flour, soybean and mackerel extract, are used on the kitchen line. (2) is written as a caution for people with severe allergies or who are sensitive, and (3) for people with severe allergies or who are hypersensitive. (4) On the low-allergen menu page (page 6): dedicated utensils are used and the dishware is washed for that menu only, but wheat flour and the like used when frying tempura in the kitchen may transfer secondarily, and this is not a guarantee that no reaction will occur. (5) The same page also has a note that soy-based sauces and dipping broths, which contain wheat flour, soybean and mackerel extract, are used on all kitchen lines, so people with severe allergies or who are hypersensitive should take care (the cover's (3) says only 'the kitchen line'). The two warnings that do carry a mark are the triangle, for contamination at the maker, and the footnote number 1, for being cooked in the same place as soba. Footnote 1 is explained below the tables on several pages, but in this edition no row was found carrying footnote 1 in the document's text. Dish names and the space below the tables carry marks (the star, the diamond, footnotes 2 to 4 and others) that show, among other things, that something is left out of a row's figures, along with their explanations. Check what a mark means in the explanation near that table. The same mark is used with different meanings in places (for example, on page 5 the star is used both for 'the selectable children's drink that comes with the set is not included' and for 'nutrition per 60g piece'). Because the markings follow the menu photographs, the document tells you to see 'soba / udon' (page 4) if you order the noodles swapped.

The tables have many columns laid out wide, with nutrition-fact columns alongside the allergen columns. The 27 allergen headings are set vertically in narrow columns, so viewing on screen may require zooming or horizontal scrolling, and when following a row across to a column, take care not to miscount the columns. The reading notes are on the cover and the explanations of the star, the diamond and footnotes 1 to 4 are placed below the tables on some pages, so the explanation is not necessarily on the same page as a row carrying the mark. The text itself is clear and was straightforward to read.
