On this day, I went to lunch in Kita-Shinchi again. I had a few places in mind and searched for open restaurants. Luckily, I found an open restaurant on the first try that day (*´∀`)♪ I arrived at the restaurant around 12 o'clock. The restaurant is located on the 5th floor of a building on Eirakucho Street in Kita-Shinchi. There was a sign and lunch menu on the first floor, so I took the elevator to the 5th floor. Inside the restaurant, there were 5 counter seats and one table for 4 people. I sat at the empty counter seat and the owner? handed me a hot towel. The lunch menu is different every day of the week, with only one option available each day.
- Tuesday: Serious Meat Curry (1,000 yen) Steak topping +500 yen
- Wednesday: Thinly Grilled Meat Set Meal (1,000 yen) Extra meat 100g +500 yen
- Thursday: Domestic Beef Rump Steak (1,000 yen) Extra meat 60g +500 yen
- Friday: Weekly Lunch Special (1,000 yen) *Extra rice and refill +100 yen
Since it was Thursday, I ordered the Domestic Beef Rump Steak (*´∀`)♪ It comes with 120g by default, so I didn't need to add extra meat. As soon as I placed my order, soup, pickles, and rice were served, followed by the steak a little later.
- Domestic Beef Rump Steak (1,000 yen including tax): The steak was served in block-shaped cuts. The cross-section was finely marbled and looked very beautiful (*≧∀≦*) It was cooked with a nice sear on the surface, and seemed to be rested well to lock in the heat. It wasn't piping hot, but still warm throughout (*´ω`*) The meat was moist, tender, and without any sinew, very delicious (*≧∀≦*) There was hardly any fat, making it light and allowing the meat's flavor to shine through. The regular portion was just right, and I didn't feel the need for extra meat (*´ω`*) The side dishes included nukazuke and negi miso, both homemade and tasty. The soup was a clear broth with daikon, carrot, and plenty of beaten egg. The rice portion was quite generous and slightly on the softer side.
I never expected to have such delicious meat for lunch, and for only 1,000 yen! Other customers were also praising the meat highly (*´ω`*) I'm curious about the lunch options on other days too (*´∀`)♪ Thank you for the meal.
