I finally got to meet Tanaka Yoshihide again after 5 years since my last visit to Sanma Kurokoge Shokudo in May 2021. This place has become increasingly popular, making reservations difficult, and the prices have gone up, making it feel distant from me. However, I really wanted to eat here again, and thanks to a friend who made a reservation, I was able to visit.The location is in Kyobashi, just a 3-4 minute walk. It's located in an arcade, so you won't get wet in the rain.The first seating starts at 5 PM, and we were guided in one by one.The restroom is on the second floor.Everyone starts at the same time.There are only 8 counter seats available for the course meal.I had heard they only accepted cash, but it seems they now accept card payments as well.We started with a toast:*Augus Beer JPY 1000* This is a local beer from Shizuoka. It's light and easy to drink.Now, let’s start with the dishes:● *Spanish Mackerel from Amakusa* Served with plenty of turnip and a nice aroma from kabosu. The Spanish mackerel was delicious.● *Squid and Isaki from Amakusa* With purple sea urchin. The squid was sliced incredibly thin, but packed with flavor. The isaki had a hint of fat. The sea urchin was also delicious. The sauce was not soy sauce, but a combination of seaweed tsukudani and egg yolk, which was amazing! \(^o^)/● *Chawanmushi* With oysters from Akou and eggs from Banshu. Since it wasn't too hot today, the warmth of the chawanmushi was just right.*Fruit-infused sparkling water JPY 1000 and up* Mandarin? Orange flavor.● *Deep-fried Scad* I was surprised by the large size of the scad. The only scad I had seen before was much smaller. Both the meat and the batter were delicious. The dipping sauce was made with grated daikon and something else, which was tasty on its own.● *Shumai* ● *Spring Rolls* With young corn from Shizuoka and pork.● *Jellyfish* With tomato sauce.● *Dim Sum* Made with shiratama flour and Kaga lotus root. The sweetness and curry flavor were delightful.*Black Oolong Tea JPY 800*● *Shark Fin* With pheasant broth. It seems this is a common dish in Shikoku.● *Final Course (4 options)* Fried rice with shirasu and lettuce, cold tantan noodles, clam and chicken soup noodles, and mapo tofu.You can choose from small, medium, or large sizes.I ordered the mapo tofu in small and the rest in medium!● *Tea from Taiwan* Ceylon tea.● *Almond Tofu with Medicinal Herbs* With white fungus.I truly wanted to try Tanaka-san's dishes once more in my lifetime. I was able to enjoy them again, and they were just as delicious as I remembered.I am grateful to my friend for making the reservation. Thank you!
