Akasaka Raimon is famous for its yakiniku, but the cold noodles served at the end of the course are also extremely delicious! And the cold noodles are available at the (affiliated?) restaurant, Kinryuzan. When I heard that it was available at Kinryuzan, I didn't hesitate to head there. First, I checked the restaurant's Instagram to see if they were going to sell it, and when it was time to call, I called right away, but as expected, I couldn't get through (tears). I called back about 30 minutes later and finally got through. After confirming that there was about a month before the expiration date, I ordered two sets and went to the store. The instructions for making the dish are enclosed, so it is easy and reliable. I was thrilled to be able to recreate the excitement I had at the restaurant at home. Well, it was delicious! I am very satisfied that I was able to get a reservation at the restaurant that had been rescheduled due to Corona. I hope the day comes soon when I can eat it at a restaurant.

Akasaka-mitsuke] Limited edition tan stew that is too good to be true! Tang Stew @ Raimon (Akasaka-mitsuke) ￥1,200 Raimon is a restaurant that offers a limited edition tan stew. Only one lunch menu. Open for lunch only on Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays. Dinner service is irregular. Only 14 seats. The sister of a certain high-class yakiniku restaurant and her husband The restaurant was quietly started in November last year by the sister and her husband from a high-class yakiniku restaurant. At night, it is difficult to make a reservation, so it is difficult to see customers at first glance. This beef stew has only one ingredient: tongue! Not only the soft and tender part, but also the thick part, which is often found in yakiniku (barbeque) dishes. The beef stew is filled with thick tongue, which is often found in yakiniku (barbeque) dishes! He was worried that it might be too much. I told him, "I usually eat a lot, so I'm fine with a big portion!" I told him that I usually eat a lot, so he served me a tremendous amount! I stopped for a moment, but then I gobbled it up. His wife was a little taken aback. You can choose rice or bread. but the baguette piled up like a mountain It looks so delicious, so I chose this one. They use bread from a bakery in Shirogane, and it is also delicious. There are 4 slices, that's a lot of bread! The price per customer is from 20,000 yen, but I want to go there at night too ( ´-` ). OO. ✓Moly salad and coffee are included.

The restaurant is owned by the daughter and her husband of "that yakiniku restaurant" known as a very hard-to-reserve restaurant that got a 2018 Silver on the food log. The location is on the 4th floor of a small building with no elevator, but when we visited, the restaurant was almost fully booked. Tang Stew Set (1,200 yen) When ordering, you are asked whether you want rice or bread, so I chose rice this time. The salad arrived first, and then the main course appeared soon after. The beef tongue was cut into bite-sized pieces and the texture was so tender and tender that it could be called "drinkable beef tongue stew. With iced coffee after the meal, it was a very reasonable lunch (^o^). When I inquired about reservations for the yakiniku that is available at night, I was told that it is currently closed. I would like to revisit again at a later date.

A visit to a restaurant that refuses to be interviewed I have been going to this restaurant for lunch every week, but this time I had a long-cherished wish to visit for dinner. I had been looking forward to having dinner at the restaurant. (market price? - 15,000 yen) Lunch is only tan stew, and dinner is only omakase course. Special Kalbi (bone-in ribs) It is a chunk of meat almost 10 cm long, but it is well knifed and looks like an accordion when it is opened. After taking a picture of the meat, it was chopped with scissors and put into the gas roaster. I was reminded that the "meat tastes best near the bone," which I had heard before, was not a lie, and after a light searing, the meat was in a state of juicy naira. I wrapped it in sanchu (a kind of Japanese dumpling) and enjoyed it. Chateaubriand The waiter grilled it for us because of its thickness. It is so tender that you can easily cut it with chopsticks. The fat is very light, so I think it is better to eat it with salt and wasabi. Special Tang Shio First of all, the cut is beautiful! It is not a thick slice of tongue, but it has a texture that is as good as other thick slices of tongue around. When I had lunch here before, I was invited to join the meat discussion between the owner and the butcher who was sitting next to me, and I was convinced that the owner was making a strong argument about the way the tongue was cut. It felt like a waste to swallow, I might have wanted to eat a little more. Shin Shin Seared Yukke As soon as I saw the egg yolk and special sauce, I ordered rice, and I was not wrong. Although the part of the meat gives the impression of red meat, it was moderately sashi and very tender, so much so that the texture of the rice won out in my mouth. We finished the course with a bowl of kalbi soup (you can in your own rice to make it look like kuppa) and Morioka cold noodles. The meat was from the same source as the famous Kinryuzan restaurant in Shirokane, but I was shocked at how different the meat was when cut differently! I was so shocked.

Less than a year after opening, this famous restaurant was selected as one of the "Top 500" restaurants on the food log. Like the main restaurant, Kinryuyama, it is also famous as a restaurant that is extremely difficult to make reservations. I will try to write about the differences between the two restaurants, which I was honored to visit within a week. Access from the nearest station Kinryuyama・・・・About 15 minutes on foot from Shirogin Takanawa Station or Hiroo Station. (It is in the middle of a residential area, but we recommend taking a cab) Raimon・・・About 1 minute walk from Akasaka-mitsuke station. ★How to serve food Kinryuzan ... A la carte only Raimon ... Course only (a la carte additions OK after the course is over) Meat Cooking Method Kinryuzan: Charcoal Raimon・・・Gas Smoke in the restaurant Kinryuzan ... I don't mind it so much Raimon ... Very smoky Business days Kinryuzan: Tuesday through Sunday (closed on Mondays) Raimon ... 1-2 days a week (check with the restaurant) The quality of the meat, the employees, and the fact that only one person per group can make reservations are the same as the main restaurant. The meat quality, employees, and one reservation per group are the same as the main restaurant.

This time, it was a hearty version of the usual "omakase course" (the photo is for three people, in case you were wondering). Top tongue salt Salted liver Sashimi liver - Shin-shin seared yukke Rib roast, Sagari (sauce), Sagari (salt) Sirloin Chateaubriand Top Mino Top Tongue Salt (←Refill) Special Halami (←Refill) Cold Noodles Dessert The high quality meat (and a bowl of rice) made us full (^_^) I have been coming to this very popular restaurant since it first opened, and now there is a long line for lunch and a half-year wait for dinner reservations, but I am still very happy to be greeted by the young master and the young madam with smiles on their faces. My next reservation is a while away, but I will try my best to visit again for dinner. Lunch is scheduled to reopen around the end of September.

Lunch reopened! I visited the restaurant on my way to change trains after learning from the restaurant's Instagram that lunch, which had been temporarily suspended, had reopened today. Tongue stew (1,200 yen, only one item on the menu) The ratio of ingredients to broth is just right. The ratio of ingredients to soup is 7:3 without any compliments. I order both rice and bread and eat the rice with the chunks of tongue and soak the remaining soup in the bread. Today, I was dining at the far end of the counter again, and the person next to me was a food log reviewer whom I admire! I wanted to talk to him, but I was too nervous to speak to him.

Tonkatsu Daigo @ Shirokane-Takanawa has been temporarily staffed since November. And from November, the price of a large portion has increased by 200 yen to 1,400 yen (and take-out, which was allowed until October, is no longer available)! (And takeout, which was allowed until October, is no longer available.) (In addition, take-out, which was ok until October, is not allowed.) It was too cheap before, so we just brought it closer to a reasonable price. Last year, there was no such thing as a large portion or free refills (in addition, there was no line at all to get in at that time). The tan stew made by Daigo's staff is just as good as the original. I wish I could go back.

Tang stew I want to try again (^q^) I found a failed photo I took when I started both the food log and Instagram that looks bad but about as good as it looks and decided to post it. w The picture is no good, but the taste is definitely tasty and tender, and I can see why you would want to wait in line to try it. I've been saying I want to try it again, but a lot of time has passed, so I'd like to go back soon to try the very good tan stew (^q^). I'd like to make a reservation for the night as well! Thank you very much for the food! #Tang Stew
