This day we had the counter all to ourselves (^_−)−☆ with all-you-can-drink option, and we toasted with Shirohonoka. First dish was Yukke, a specialty with Kin Kan pickled in Yukke sauce. I tried to separate them with chopsticks and got stuck, which was a bit embarrassing (゚o゚;; Next was the Hassun, a round platter resembling an afternoon tea set. It included fruit kimchi, roast beef, mini tomato with umeboshi vinegar, napa cabbage namul, harami chum, and wagyu tongue namero. The fruit kimchi was made with pear, and the roast beef was made with wagyu rib. It was cooked at a low temperature of 59 degrees for 45 minutes, resulting in a moist and smooth texture. The mini tomato was refreshing and delicious, a great palate cleanser. It was fun to try a variety of dishes. The Tail Soup was like Samgyetang, but not as rich, more refined and light. The Kujyo green onions were crispy and added a nice touch, and the chicken harami added a bold flavor. The highlight that got everyone excited was the Ise Ebi Kanjan Seu!! First, we enjoyed the shiny lobster meat as is. Then we mixed it with the separately served lobster miso for a rich and enjoyable experience. Then, the barbecue began! The staff grilled all the meat for us. First, we had tongue. We tried three types of salt: geta, upper tongue, and special upper tongue. The upper tongue was delicious! The pineapple lemon sauce was also delicious! The geta was very juicy! The thick cut was compared with sansho pepper and wasabi. The two salt-grilled meats were misji and liver. The liver had a milky taste and was delicious, light, and not gamey. The misji had a good balance of texture, fat, and umami. The selected cut of the day was Usunaga beef sirloin. It was seared briefly and was tender and juicy. The sweetness of the meat came through clearly and was delicious. The meat with sauce was sagari, katasankaku, and fillet. The katasankaku was delicious! The texture was good! The fillet was tender and plump. The sauce with green chili was also delicious! The dessert was roasted pistachio gelato, which was surprisingly delicious. This time, since it was a private booking, I didn't take many notes, so this review is a bit light-hearted (laughs). It was nice to see the dishes being prepared right in front of us at the counter, and the meat was grilled carefully, one slice at a time, giving it a special touch. The location is a bit hidden, with no obvious sign, so some people might get lost trying to find it. I recommend checking out photos of the exterior beforehand to make it easier to locate!
