I visited the renowned yakiniku restaurant, Sumibi Yakiniku Kyuu, during lunch hours.Since it’s a popular spot, I made a reservation about a month and a half in advance. They requested that I decide on my order beforehand, so I chose the Harami Lunch and the Shitakuu Lunch.This restaurant only serves fresh, non-frozen meat. As a result, they don’t keep stock in the restaurant; instead, they source fresh meat daily, and after preparing the fat and tendons, they cut the necessary portions only after receiving an order. From my seat at the counter, I could see them cutting the meat fresh for each order.The Harami was incredibly tender and packed with flavor. It’s no surprise that it’s the most popular choice for lunch. I’d say it has more umami than some poorly aged meats.The Shitakuu Lunch featured a variety of cuts from the tongue: the base, middle, lower, and tip, allowing me to enjoy the different textures. And once again, the flavor was outstanding.It was a lunch that exceeded my expectations and left me completely satisfied. I definitely want to try dinner here next time!
