Had the most incredible meal recently, and I need to gush about every single thing I ate, let’s dive in! First off, the Sinful Tamagoyaki. It’s this fluffy, buttery egg roll that’s sweet and savory in all the right ways. Like, melt-in-your-mouth good. You take one bite and immediately think, “Yeah, I sin for more of this.” Then there was the angler fish liver. Let me tell you, this stuff is rich. Like, “I need a sip of something to balance it” rich, but in the best way. It’s creamy, almost buttery, with this subtle briny kick that makes it feel super luxurious. The miso-glazed black cod was chef’s kiss. The fish itself is so tender it practically falls apart with a fork, and that miso glaze? Sticky, sweet, a little salty Grilled white eel skewers next. Eel can be tricky, but this was spot on. The outside’s got a little char, which adds this nice smoky flavor, and the inside is juicy and soft. That sweet eel sauce they slather on? Perfection. It’s not too heavy, just enough to make each bite pop. Okra might sound boring, but man, it was the perfect palate cleanser. Crunchy, fresh, just a little bit of that slimy goodness (you know what I mean). Sometimes you need that simple veggie to reset, and this did the job. Beef tongue? Yes, please. Thick slices, grilled just right – tender but with a little chew, so you actually feel like you’re eating something substantial. They didn’t over-season it, which is great because you get that pure, meaty flavor. I went back for seconds before I even realized it. Cold udon was next, and wow, so refreshing. The noodles are chewy in that satisfying way, and the light dashi broth they toss it in is just salty enough. It’s like a cool breeze for your mouth after all the grilled and rich dishes. So simple, but so good. Thick-cut lamb chops, these were a standout. The outside’s crispy with herbs, and the inside? Pink, juicy, so flavorful. Lamb can sometimes be gamey, but this was mild and delicious. Washed it all down with yuzu wine, which was perfect. Bright, citrusy, a little sweet but not cloying. That yuzu zing cuts through the richness of the food, so it’s like a little reset with every sip. …Read More
