Hokka Hokka Tei (ほっかほっか亭, lit. "Hot Hot Shop") is a bento take-out chain with over 2,000 franchises and company-owned branches throughout Japan. It offers a variety of dishes, generally over rice, at relatively low price. Unlike competitors such as Yoshinoya beef-bowl and the various cheap curry establishments, there are no chairs or counters for inside-dining.
