Fukushima, Bonobono ✨ A long-established Italian bar in front of JR Fukushima Station, which has been open for 10 years this year. I visited on a holiday night this time. There were reservation guests lining up before the opening, indicating its high popularity. The dishes we ordered were: - Sea urchin gratin pasta (market price, around 4000 yen?) - Carpaccio 5 kinds (1480 yen per person, as shown in the photo for 2 people) - Thick-cut beef tongue low-temperature roast (2980 yen x 2) - Eel and egg ajillo (980 yen) - Eel omelette - One-bite deep-fried corn and cream cheese (680 yen) ✨ Pick-up reviews ❗️ ⚫︎ Sea urchin gratin pasta A luxurious pasta with sea urchin on top. It comes with a piece of sea urchin on the side, which you mix in while eating. It was a very rich pasta with a mix of gratin and sea urchin. It's quite rich and filling, so it's better to order it first rather than later. ⚫︎ Carpaccio 5 kinds Hamo, salmon, abalone, squid, tuna - 5 kinds. Each ingredient was seasoned with a twist, not just served as is. For example, the tuna had soy sauce whip with caviar, and the abalone had Tosazu vinegar with cucumber, giving an Italian-inspired seasoning. You can enjoy various sashimi, so I think this assortment is a good deal. ⚫︎ Thick-cut beef tongue low-temperature roast Surprisingly thick slices of beef tongue. And it's low-temperature roasted, so the inside is cooked to medium rare. It's very tender, allowing you to fully enjoy the beef tongue. The price is reasonable, and if you can enjoy this thickness of rare beef tongue, it seems worth it. This is my top recommendation among the dishes this time. ❗️ ⚫︎ Eel and egg ajillo Eel, egg, and seaweed are included, with seaweed likely being seaweed tsukudani, giving it a strong salty flavor. It's just right when eaten on bread. ⚫︎ Eel omelette An omelette with a large piece of eel on top. Cheese is sprinkled on top of the eel. This was my first time trying the combination of eel and cheese, and it surprisingly matched well! We ordered various a la carte dishes this time, but there are still many types of dishes to try, so it seems like multiple visits are needed to conquer them all. They also offer a course with appetizer assortment, pasta, and all-you-can-drink for 2500 yen, which is suitable for both the first and second stops. You can use it according to the occasion.
