This is Wafu Motsu Ryori Arata, a motsu cuisine restaurant located near Nishinakajima-Minamigata Station. I had been wanting to visit this place for a while and finally got the chance to go with my colleagues today.I ordered the "Omakase Course." While some regulars opt for their favorite a la carte dishes, we decided to go for the variety offered in the omakase. Here are my thoughts on the wonderful motsu dishes we enjoyed:1. **Wafu Nikomi** Consistently delicious. The tender, melt-in-your-mouth texture was superb.2. **Tongue Stew** A deep flavor with a crispy texture and rich sauce. I couldn't get enough of it.3. **Chire Sashi** A rare cut from the spleen. Softer and richer than liver, it was exquisite.4. **Mino Yubiki** The crunchy texture and refreshing taste were outstanding.5. **Neck Smoke** Smoked with cherry wood chips, it had an incredible aroma. Truly exceptional.6. **Grilled Tongue** Juicy and full of flavor.7. **Raw Omasum** Outstanding crunchiness. Perfect as a snack with drinks.8. **Grilled Heart** The light flavor was surprisingly delicious for offal.9. **Call Tan** Boiled and then chilled. The refreshing fat was wonderful.10. **Tataki of Heart** This is not tataki, but raw. It was undeniably delicious.11. **Tail Stew** Tender and flavorful, falling off the bone. Absolutely delightful.12. **Teriyaki of Fuku** A part of the lung. The perfect accompaniment to drinks, with a chewy texture and rich, deep flavor.(Additional) **Tail Zosui** The gentle richness of the beef tail in this final dish was outstanding. A must-try.For drinks, we had "Kirin Lager Beer," "Highball," and "Japanese Sake (Hōmei)" x2. The beer after waiting in line was the best. The highball, made in-house, is a must-try as you can't find it elsewhere. Hōmei has a deep umami and richness that pairs perfectly with motsu dishes.All the motsu dishes and drinks were incredibly delicious.It was definitely worth the wait. Enjoying reasonably priced and delicious motsu cuisine was fantastic. I would love to visit again on a weekday if I get the chance. It was a great meal!
