It had been almost a year and a half since my last visit to the "holy place"—Raimon.I decided to keep lunch light, haha.First, we toasted with a draft beer.The kimchi served as a starter was delicious.And then, the meat extravaganza began.We started with large portions of salted tongue and salted outside skirt.Time to grill them on the roaster.The large, tender tongue was pure bliss.The thick-cut outside skirt was also incredibly satisfying.Next up was beautifully cubed liver.Just a quick sear, and it melted in my mouth.Then came three cuts of lean meat with sauce.Even so, the marbling was just right.We compared the outside skirt and hanging tender.Both were equally amazing!The beautifully marbled strip loin was next.One slice took over the entire roaster!I enjoyed it with a raw egg, sukiyaki-style.It was an absolute delight in my mouth!!!Finally, we had miso tongue and mountain chain tripe.After the marbled meat feast, this felt like a comforting end, haha.And to finish, the exquisite cold noodles.The noodles had great texture, and the broth was truly delicious.Simple yet an extraordinary dish.After enjoying some melon for dessert, the two-hour blissful course came to an end.I wonder when I can come back next?It was a great meal!
