Tanimachi 5-minute walk from Temmabashi Station "Gushite" This time, we had a course meal. The contents included: Kisarazu mozzarella and crushed peach, Saba Genovese, Tonnato, assorted Veneto-style marinated sardines, Insalata Russa, Omi beef Koshimizu Ranch cutlet and Wagyu beef shank jelly, Tripe stew, Kinmedai, Omi Koshimizu Ranch Shintama and Misuji, Conger eel and Mont Saint-Michel mussel pasta. We started with the Kisarazu mozzarella and crushed peach. This combination of fruit and cheese is a classic. The crushed peach has a peach-like aroma that comes after the initial sweetness. The freshness of the cheese and the richness that follows complement each other perfectly. The drinks were served in a pairing style, starting with sparkling wine. It had a natural feel with a beautiful sweetness that resembled peaches. It paired exceptionally well with the dish. Next, we tried the Saba bruschetta, a specialty of the restaurant. The simplicity of bread topped with Saba and plenty of Genovese was amazing. The order of flavors - bread, Genovese, Saba - created a unique experience, especially when paired with the wine, which transformed the impression. The Tonnato was likely a Vitello Tonnato style, resembling tuna mayo. The ham umami that followed was delightful. Each component was essential and complemented the others. The pairing with a red wine was perfect, with a chocolate-like aroma that matched beautifully. The appetizer platter included Veneto-style marinated sardines, Insalata Russa, and Caponata. Each dish had its unique flavors, with the Caponata having a slightly spicy nuance. The white wine pairing was refreshing, with grapefruit notes that mellowed out the spiciness. The Omi beef Koshimizu Ranch cutlet and Wagyu beef shank jelly were exceptional, with the cutlet being tender and the jelly melting in the mouth. The red wine pairing enhanced the spiciness, creating a harmonious blend. The Tripe stew was rich and flavorful, with the wine's spices complementing the dish perfectly. The Kinmedai with lentils and mixed grains, paired with a white wine, had a delightful texture that enhanced the aroma. The main meat dish, Omi Koshimizu Ranch Shintama and Misuji, was incredibly delicious, with a perfect balance of lean meat and fat. The red wine pairing had a vanilla essence that complemented the dish well. Finally, the Conger eel and Mont Saint-Michel mussel pasta was light and refreshing, with no added salt. The natural wine pairing had a strong aroma that mellowed out at the end. Dessert was not included, but the meal was satisfying and delicious.
