I made a reservation for 11 AM at Ryotei Yamasa Ryokan 10 days ago.Located at 1785 Shimoke, Anjuin-cho, Usa City, Oita Prefecture, this restaurant has been in business since 1920.Upon arrival, I was guided to a private room, as all rooms are private.I had placed my order over the phone:● Ajimu Soft-Shelled Turtle Hot Pot CourseFresh blood, vinegared raw liver, and blanched turtle skin,soft-shelled turtle hot pot, rice porridge, pickles, and vanilla ice cream.Additionally, I ordered:● Soft-Shelled Turtle Sashimi.The soft-shelled turtle hot pot was similar to chicken, but the fat was even lighter.Packed with collagen, I’m sure it’s great for my skin!The secret homemade vinegar soy sauce was slightly sweet,and when paired with the homemade yuzu pepper, it tripled the deliciousness—absolutely amazing! The sashimi had a bit of a chewy texture, somewhat similar to sea bream,but it felt more like eating horse sashimi than fish!Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed the soft-shelled turtle in the comfort of a private room!If you’re in the area, I highly recommend visiting.It was a great meal!
