On Sundays at 6:00 PM, by complete reservation only, you can find this place. Inside the L-shaped counter with an open kitchen, there is a sunken hearth that looks super cool. Using the far-infrared rays of charcoal fire, you can enjoy over 10 types of meat including beef, pork, and chicken. It's amazing. Normally, you would expect a large duct pointing downwards for smoke exhaust, but here it is actually concave upwards, and you wonder if it can really suck up the smoke?? Even at the peak of smoke production, there is no smoke in the seating area. The design must have been carefully thought out to achieve this with such a small ventilation fan. Before the course starts, you choose your favorite chopsticks from a wooden box containing five different types. This is where the excitement really begins. You can take the chopsticks home at the end, and the paper for wiping the chopsticks clean is specially ordered for this purpose. There are too many highlights in the food to write about in detail, it would be like a booklet. The cute display of figurines of the meat you are about to eat is fantastic. In conclusion, there was not a hint of smell, the variety of meats served was rich, and there was a bit of laughter mixed in throughout, making it an exceptional dining experience. Honestly, even at 12,000 yen per course, it felt too cheap. The food, the atmosphere of the conversations, and the amount of information about the ingredients were all perfect. Finding the right balance is crucial. Too casual can be crude, too formal can create tension. Explaining the ingredients too much can become overwhelming, and I think it is actually quite difficult. Personally, no matter how much detail is provided, ultimately, "delicious food is delicious" is all that matters to me, so unnecessary explanations are not needed. The food exceeded the hurdle of being delicious and not smelly with ease, and in the end, I left with a sense of "I had a great time". There are hardly any restaurants like this. ◆Chef's Course ¥12000 (highly recommended) ・Akita Tsukinowaguma Bear in Chinese medicine-flavored soup ・Kumamoto Horse meat belly sliced into 3 pieces, marinated in soy sauce, smoked, and powdered ・Ibaraki Ostrich thigh meat smoked caviar, with quail, almonds ・Black Wagyu beef shabu-shabu with a siphon used for coffee, blending Satsuma tea and bonito flakes ・Kawachi duck hamburger ・Hiroshima Lamb Genghis Khan, where the fat is removed from the lamb in a Genghis Khan pot, and white asparagus absorbs the removed fat ・Iberian pork secret meat rare meatball, raw meatball, it was so good ・Miyazaki Chicken Sorriso, charcoal-grilled style, a rare part that accounts for only 1% of the chicken, prepared in a Miyazaki local cuisine style, crunchy! ・Ezo deer and bamboo shoots, freshly chopped on the spot with wood leaf salt that maximizes the flavor of deer and emits a chestnut-like aroma, bamboo shoots are also amazing! ・Wild boar hot pot with extra-large mushrooms Wild boar is usually miso-flavored to remove the smell, but here, using the freshness and blood removal, it is made with a special broth ・Ezo deer simmered in a light rain ・Black Wagyu beef rib meat cooked rice the raw rib meat matched at the end was amazing ・Strawberry Daifuku ◆Drinks (no prices listed) ・Glass of wine ・Highball (I drank Hakushu and Yamazaki) ・Draft beer (Carlsberg)
