Hirashiroen, which operates various types of yakiniku in Tokyo and the suburbs, opened a luxurious yakiniku restaurant in Kinshicho in 2020, following the Ginza store. I visited here with a friend I hadn't seen in years to have a meal together. I had been to the Ginza store before and was impressed by the high quality and cost performance, so I had high expectations for this place. The entrance and elevator in the newly built building next to Marui are sparkling. When you go up to the 7th floor, you can see the night view of Kinshicho in front of you. I was surprised to see how beautiful Kinshicho was. We were guided to a private room with a view of the Skytree. Is this the best room for the night view of the Skytree? Unfortunately, the Skytree's lighting happened to be dull. I'm sure the atmosphere will be better during the holiday season when it's lit up. We started with a toast of highball to celebrate our safe reunion. The Yamazaki 12-year-old highball for 1,182 yen (excluding tax) is a rare lineup. There is also Maker's Mark, so let's look forward to that later. The course also looked good, but when I asked the staff, they recommended not including the course, so we opted for a la carte. We started with a Vegetable First, a Kimchi assortment for 950 yen, and the staff's strong recommendation, Yukke sashimi for 1,800 yen. The Kimchi includes four types of cabbage, cucumber, daikon, and yam, and the marinated sauce is mild and elegant. The Yukke sashimi is presented on ice, which is stylish. This restaurant was the first in Hirashiroen to handle raw food, and you can feel their confidence. We mixed it well with the egg yolk sauce and garnished it with wasabi. The egg yolk is very rich, but the meat is not inferior. This is delicious. The wasabi also does a great job. For grilled items, we had the highly recommended Special Tongue Salt with Caviar (half) for 1,490 yen, Special Harami (half) for 1,400 yen, and Sanchu for 600 yen as a salad substitute. The tongue was enjoyed with caviar and wasabi, a combination that is a cheat move. The thick Harami, which you can be sure is delicious just by holding it to grill, has a dense and tender texture and is best enjoyed with just lemon. Next, we tried the original Zabun-suki for 1,480 yen per slice, which is only available at this branch of Hirashiroen. This is a dish where you grill the meat and wrap it in garlic butter toast. The staff quickly grilled the large piece of meat and wrapped it in toast. It's a violation to have this egg yolk with a strong flavor and texture compete with the garlic toast. I couldn't imagine a situation where the garlic toast would be overshadowed. This dish was inspired by a beef sandwich. Since the meat was of very high quality, we also ordered a variety of offal for 1,580 yen, including mino, tecchan, kopchan, geara, lamb, and Awaodori chicken, all seasoned with salt. This is surely confident, right? Surprisingly, the offal didn't shrink or become tough when grilled, and there was no unpleasant smell. We enjoyed it with a little lemon and the salt sauce. To fulfill my friend's wish for meat sushi as the last dish, we had Uni-ku for 680 yen, Nikura for 550 yen, and Wagyu nigiri for 450 yen. The meat sushi, which was brought out respectfully, was shining, perhaps due to the lighting. And the Tamari soy sauce was excellent. The meat has a fine texture and marbling, so even when dipped in soy sauce, it bounces off. The umami of the meat and the soy sauce are enhanced by each other. You don't come across meat sushi of this level often, do you? I also thoroughly enjoyed it. For the finale, we had the Ultimate Gac
