Today, November 29th, is said to be "good meat day," so I decided to review a meat restaurant I visited recently. I saw this place on TV the other day. They are known for their thick-cut beef tongue, which is incredibly tender and delicious. The restaurant is called "Nikutama Kimura" and it used to be in Teine, but now it has moved to Shinoro. There is also a branch in Nishino called "Nikutama Sanmeet Kimura Nishino Branch." Apparently, the original store was in Otaru, but I've never been there. It seems like the son is running the Sapporo locations. When I visited, the person on TV (probably the son) was there to greet us. He was wearing a stylish beret and had a great presence! Here is what I bought: - Thick-cut beef tongue (200g) for 1,600 yen - Misuji (150g) for 600 yen - Kalbi (250g) for 500 yen - Maruchou (200g) for 500 yen - Lamb with bones (2 pieces) for 600 yen The Maruchou and lamb with bones were not seasoned, while the rest were. The meat comes from the USA, Mexico, and other places. First of all, the beef tongue here is amazing because of its thickness! It takes 3 days to prepare, but it's worth it. It has cuts on it, so it doesn't take long to cook. When I tried it, I was truly impressed by how tender it was! It's not overly seasoned with just salt and black pepper, so you can enjoy it without feeling overwhelmed. The flavor of the meat also bursts in your mouth. This beef tongue is definitely worth buying again! The Kalbi is a good deal at 250g for 500 yen, and it's enough for everyday consumption. It's seasoned, so it would be great for outdoor BBQs in the summer. The Misuji has thin streaks of fat, so it's popular with those who prefer lean meat, like my family. The beef tongue, Kalbi, and Misuji from here are must-haves in my household! The Maruchou and lamb with bones were not seasoned, so I just seasoned them with salt and pepper. I'm not sure which seasoning brings out the flavor of the meat best, so I would prefer them to be pre-seasoned. They have over 30 types of meat available at all times, and they also offer takeout bento boxes starting at 450 yen. If this restaurant were closer to my home, I would be extremely happy!
