Today, I had a slightly luxurious steak lunch in Kichijoji. The restaurant is run by the famous meat shop "Satou" on the first floor, known for their minced cutlets. It was around 2:00 PM on a Saturday, and the place was packed and bustling. Surprisingly, there were many families dining, indicating that it is a popular spot. They offer high-priced menu items, with some steaks costing over 10,000 yen, making it a truly authentic steakhouse. This time, I ordered the "Lunch Menu/Umezen" (3,000 yen tax included). While they also had a 120g diced steak for 2,000 yen, I decided to splurge a bit and chose the 150g steak. When the dish arrived, I was pleasantly surprised by the generous portion of meat, which got me excited. First, I had the salad, which had a good balance of tomatoes, cucumbers, and dressing. A well-prepared side dish often raises expectations for the main course. The steak, made with black wagyu beef, was truly delicious and juicy! Every bite was filled with meat juices, creating a blissful moment. The two sauces complemented the dish well, but eating it with just salt was also enjoyable. As expected, the quality was much higher than that of family restaurants or chain stores. I enjoyed the accompanying vegetables, free refills of Koshihikari rice, and miso soup as well. I finished every last bite! It was a long time since I had such a luxurious lunch. Although I don't come here often, I would like to revisit for another indulgent meal when I have the chance. It was a satisfying steak lunch, thank you!
