うどんが主食
I haven't been to Osaka in a while. I didn't know there was a place like "Kimiya" here. "Kimiya" is a well-known yakiniku restaurant specializing in lean meat located in Ikoma City, Nara Prefecture. I have been there a few times, and they usually only serve lean meat, but occasionally they will offer a good tongue, but only to regular customers. The lean meat on the grill is so tender that it can be easily cut with just a fork. It's so delicious that you can eat the lean meat "endlessly," it's a terrifyingly good restaurant (laughs).
I heard that "Kimiya" has opened a new restaurant in a place beyond Midosuji from Kita-Shinchi, so I came to visit. I didn't know it was here... It has a sophisticated appearance that makes you think it's a Japanese restaurant. I never imagined that the "endless lean meat" was being served here. When I gave my reservation name, I was guided to a room, and there are many private rooms. It's also nice that there is hardly any smell of meat inside the restaurant. When I entered the room, my friend was already ready. The "endless lean meat" has begun.
We ordered the 300g course for 18,000 yen, and each person received two slices of lean meat, each about 150g. We also ordered additional beef tongue. There is a roaster in front of us, but it's not gas like in a typical yakiniku restaurant; it's charcoal, just like in Nara's Kimiya. Gas tends to burn quickly, but charcoal slowly heats up and has a nice aroma. They grill the lean meat for us, and when one side is almost cooked, the staff splits it with a fork, amazing. There are two types of sauce, one is tare and the other is grated daikon, and I liked the grated daikon. My friend said the tare was incredibly delicious, but I found that the grated daikon surprisingly complemented the lean meat that was grilled over charcoal. The lean meat was so delicious... I actually prefer sirloin over lean meat. I'm not a fan of the taste of iron or the original flavor of lean meat. But at "Kimiya," I can eat as much lean meat as I want. I feel like I could keep eating endlessly. This time, I really understood the taste of lean meat itself, and it seemed even more delicious with the grated daikon. I thought about ordering more lean meat, but I always regret it, so I stopped. The beef tongue was also delicious, made from black-haired cattle. The best part of the tongue, with a nice texture and just the right amount of moisture, was delicious. "Kimiya" is great because they have various types of meat. It's easy to understand with lean meat as the main focus, and everyone loves lean meat. This place has improved the elegance of Nara's "Kimiya" to suit Kita-Shinchi. Nara has its own charm, but the urban "Kimiya" is also great. Since it mainly consists of private rooms, it can be used for dates, entertaining guests, or even with families.
