Marumasu, located at 76 1-5, Asahikawa City, is a Genghis Khan (Mongolian barbecue) bar that I finally visited. The restaurant is relatively small and the staff cook the dishes for you. The menu offers various lamb dishes. I started with a draft beer and a lamb cabbage stew as a complimentary appetizer. I ordered the popular lamb shoulder loin (100g for 880 yen), lamb with cumin (440 yen), and celery kimchi (550 yen). The celery kimchi was surprisingly delicious. The lamb shoulder loin was tender, juicy, and had no strong taste. The cumin-flavored lamb was aromatic and spicy. I enjoyed my highball drink while savoring these dishes. Marumasu has a unique concept of serving Genghis Khan in a bar-like setting, which I found quite enjoyable.

I couldn't go to Yakushima to eat Suffolk due to a typhoon, so I went to a restaurant in Asahikawa to try it, but they were already sold out. I ended up having lamb instead, and it was delicious! The lamb meatballs called "ramune" and the low-temperature roasted lamb were both very tasty. Thank you for the meal!

I visited this place without looking at the menu, just because I wanted to eat Genghis Khan. The style here is where the staff cooks the food for you, rather than you cooking it yourself. They also had sashimi, yukhoe, and skewers, which were all delicious!

Met up with a colleague for a casual drink on a Friday. The place was almost full! "It's a bit cramped, but there's space over here," the staff said. We were happy to sit at the counter even in a corner. We ordered drinks, toasted, and then ordered lamb and risotto. They confirmed if we wanted cream or tomato for the risotto. They mentioned that the risotto would take a bit of time. As we waited, we were served snap peas with salt dressing. The lamb arrived first - cooked with a hint of pink and a nice aroma of lamb. There was also a sauce on the side. It took about 40 minutes for the risotto to arrive. We ordered the cream version, but it seemed more tomato-like. It was still delicious though! It didn't seem to have any connection to the lamb. Personally, I felt it was a bit pricey, but it was tasty. I overheard the staff listening to customer preferences and making suggestions based on that.

Tuesday is a cheerful Wednesday♪ Morita's Friday♬ Live broadcast from noon on Fridays♪ Morita's Friday♬, which means that at 12 o'clock, there will be a broadcast by Hirumorita. However, Morita Hitoshi Channel has not been updated recently. The reason is... a machine trouble with the director. So please wait a little longer for the update. When it is updated, I will report it again. There is a Genghis Khan restaurant here. I didn't know that. So I went to check it out. The location is at the entrance of Takara Market, 1st Street 5th Avenue. I almost missed it and had to go around again to find it. It's a small entrance facing 1st Street, and it's a hidden gem of a restaurant. If no one tells you, you wouldn't notice it. The small curtain hanging has "正" written inside a circle. The sign is also buried in the snow and... haha, they deliberately hide it, huh? A one-person Genghis Khan restaurant... that's what I heard, but it feels different. The interior doesn't have the typical smell of Genghis Khan. Rather, it has a slightly stylish bar-like feel. However, looking at the menu, they have lamb, mutton, Suffolk... so indeed, they have a variety of sheep dishes. So it doesn't seem like I went to the wrong place. Tonight, I will try the Jawa tea by myself... but I have never had a solo drink. In fact, I have only done it a few times in the past. I really don't feel like drinking alcohol... haha. But I'm curious about what appetizer will be served. Herring pickles, a Hokkaido specialty. A slightly sour pickle made with rice koji, herring, and cabbage marinated. I quite like this even though I don't like rice sushi, I can eat this. Oh... they're grilling it. This shop doesn't have a system where you grill the Genghis Khan yourself; the owner cooks it in the kitchen. That's why the table isn't slippery with oil. So the interior is not filled with smoke. So there is no distinctive smell of sheep. The lamb with salt and pepper sprinkled lightly, served on a white plate. Instead of the black Genghis Khan pot, it comes like this. It feels quite different from the Genghis Khan restaurants I know. It's more like a sheep cuisine restaurant. And the meat is very tender. Plus, there's no smell at all. The sauce is homemade, made with a rich soy sauce base, but personally, I felt that the salt brought out the flavor of the meat better. Roast lamb served medium rare. The meat served rare is quite red. It's like roast beef but roast lamb, and it's incredibly tender. There's no smell at all. Even though I know it's sheep, I didn't feel the sheep's taste at all, and it was delicious. In terms of taste, sheep have a lot of umami, so even if you eat sheep without any smell, you can still feel the sheep's taste in the aftertaste. But this one didn't have any of that, and it was delicious. Lamb tongue. There might not be many restaurants in Asahikawa that serve lamb tongue. This one also arrived after being grilled. The dipping sauce came with it, but the owner's recommendation was to have it with lemon only. Well, this was delicious too. It might not have the same texture as beef tongue, but this one had a different taste of sheep. I had lamb tongue a long time ago, and I didn't have a good impression of it. But this time, it was delicious, and my memory has been rewritten. Homemade Ramune. When I ordered this, I was expecting a bottle...? Oh...? Where's the Ramune?...? Oh...? In short, it's a abbreviation for lamb meatball. With basil in it, which adds an accent. The sauce was also made with a rich homemade flavor. Personally, I thought it would be delicious even without the basil. It was my first time trying this kind of meatball. Side dishes. Having these kinds of menus is also different from other Genghis Khan restaurants. In fact, this place is...

While thinking about going once, I finally did! And completely forgot about it... But when passing by, oh... there's an interesting looking shop... but the sensor didn't react... (laughs) Let's see... I'll search on Tabelog! Oh... Kitadora-san has been there... anyone else? No one else has been there, huh? What do you think? What do you think?? Apparently, they have Suffolk lamb, so I'll just try a taste of that? There's also a fish tank inside with beautiful shrimp... for viewing? for sale?? I'm not really hungry, so when I said I just wanted to taste, they kindly said, "Please, go ahead~♬︎" The young shop owner is really nice (^-^)v The lamb was delicious, tender, and with very little smell...♪*ﾟ

I had been curious about this restaurant for a while. They had a wide variety of meats, and I opted for a course meal which was very filling. Next time, I would like to try ordering individual items instead of a course meal.

It seems to be a famous shop among band fans. I became aware of its existence when I participated in a game stream by a certain band member. I thought it would be impossible to visit due to its location, but I found out about their participation in the Sakata Festival and decided to visit. There happened to be another participant from the game stream there, and I was happy to chat with them. They offered Genghis Khan for 1000 yen per pack, which had just the right amount of salt, thick and tender meat, and a fragrant aroma without any unpleasant smell. I returned in the evening, but they said it would take 20 minutes for the meat to be ready, so I gave up. Later, I found out that the owner insisted on going to see 10-FEET, so the wait was for that purpose. I understand their feelings, so it seems that customers are also patient during that time ^_^
