Mmmm...the old champion!
Kumonotori used to be the king of butcher shops a long time ago.
I'm revisiting the restaurant myself, but this is the first time I've posted about it since there was no food log or I didn't do it before.
Kunimoto back then was... Oh, that Kunimoto! That Kunimoto! It was like "Oh, that Kunimoto!
Nowadays, you can usually get in without a reservation, not because it's bad or anything, but because there are so many restaurants imitating Kunimoto.
It is because the number of yakiniku restaurants has been increasing.
Now there are yakiniku restaurants that are particular about the way they cut the meat and where it comes from, and serving it in rare parts is now a standard practice.
Of course, that's only for high-end restaurants, but Kunimoto is a high-end restaurant in terms of cosmetics, so I get the impression that it's tough if you don't move up another level

An exquisite Italian restaurant nestled in Takeshiba
"PAPPAGALLO" is a legendary Italian restaurant in the Takeshiba area, renowned since its opening in 1985. It offers a delightful experience with fresh ingredients, featuring thinly baked stone oven pizzas and cheeses sourced from some of Italy's finest traditional producers. While it exudes a sense of elegance and tradition, the warm and homey atmosphere makes it an inviting place to dine.
The course price is 13,200 yen. The price is modest for a Japanese restaurant of this type, and the cost performance is good.
However, the owner and chef is practically a one-man operation, so he is always busy preparing dishes, etc., and you need to be precise about when to order drinks. It is a pity that the restaurant lacks the real pleasure of watching the chef's skills at the counter kappo. I have no complaints about the taste of the food, and I think the prices are reasonable, but if you ask me if I would want to go back again and again, I would say that it is a bit delicate.
The cold salad pasta has crisp vegetables, and the chewy texture of the noodles is irresistible. The Japanese-style pork shabu dish is rich in flavor, and when paired with the salad, it feels satisfying to eat. The cod roe and shiso have a refreshing taste, making it enjoyable without getting boring until the end. For something spicy, the salad pasta with natto, avocado, and green chili has a delicious addictive spiciness. The staff is kind, and the explanations about the dishes are easy to understand. It also comes with soup, small side dishes, and fruit, allowing for a healthy and fulfilling experience.

There was a moderate amount of space, and it didn't feel like loud voices were flying around, making it comfortable to spend time. Since there were members who smoked, the smoking room was also appreciated.
I have been asked by several sushi restaurant owners, "Have you been to Tomisho?" so I finally decided to pay a visit. Today's menu was as follows, but it offers sushi-like nibbles and solidly sized, tasty nigiri. The rice was pleasantly vinegary through the nose, and I would say the hardness was standard. The sea bream was shockingly delicious, with a very strong umami flavor, which explains why it was brought to the lineup in the latter half of the meal. The tuna is also very tasty and makes you want to try the nigiri again. The additional dishes of chutoro pickles, shime saba (mackerel), and dried gourd rolls are also delicious and cannot be missed, but the entire meal is quite large, and you will be satisfied and full. (Tsumami + 15 nigiri + 2 additional nigiri and 1 thin roll)

Today's lamb chops and half rack, as well as the warm smoked salmon, are the best. They pair perfectly with New Zealand wine! The last hokey pokey is a dessert you can't taste anywhere else! Tonight is also the best 😃
