This restaurant in Marugame City is famous for its thickly sliced beef tongue. The restaurant has counter seats and table seats where customers take off their shoes. The signature dish, "Bump-sliced Beef Tongue Yaki," is a beef tongue cut about 1 cm thick, and the more you bite into it, the more the sweetness of the fat spreads in your mouth. The "Special Beef Tongue Stew Set Meal" and "Tender Harami Steak Set Meal" are especially popular at lunch.
We went for a short excursion to Kagawa and had dinner at Isshaku, a restaurant we both wanted to try.
I guess it is very popular.
The wait was surprisingly short and we were able to enter the restaurant in about 20 minutes.
And it was a pretty good seat with a partition by the window.
I'm an indecisive bastard, and here I start worrying again 😂.
Should I go for the parent chicken or the chickens....
In the end, I decided to order one each, saying I wanted to try both.
My boyfriend ordered onigiri🍙 and I ordered tori-meshi🐔🍚.
I ordered the chicken rice 🐔🍚.
(Cabbage was included, but if you didn't want it, they would remove it if you asked.)
The long-awaited chicken on the bone!
I was so excited to get the chicken on the bone that I didn't care if people saw me or not. LOL!
The chicken is chewy, so they cut a big slit in it for us.
The more you bite into it, the more the chicken's flavor fills your mouth.
The chicken is thick and juicy.
The chicken is thick and juicy, with a lot of salt and pepper and a strong garlic aroma.
The spicy and rich flavor of this dish is addictive.
I don't drink alcohol, so this richness of flavor makes me want to eat more rice.
If you like to drink, it will probably make your beer go further 🍺.
The oyadori chicken is easily cooled down because of the slit, so if you want to eat it hot, I recommend you eat it early. LOL!
The chicken rice is lightly seasoned and goes well with the strong flavored chicken bones.
I was worried about whether I would be able to finish it since it was quite a large portion, but I almost finished it by myself🤣.
Carbohydrates are delicious!
I usually skip carbohydrates only at night, but I eat them when I go out for dinner.
The takuan (pickled radish) that comes with it is also very crunchy and tasty. I love takuan (pickled radish) and other pickles.
No wonder it is so popular at Isshaku.
I want to go back!
Next time, I want to eat two chickens, one for the chicks and one for the oyadori. LOL!
The Kagawa excursion was a lot of fun and went by in no time at all.
Thanks for driving, boyfriend 🙏🙏.
Let's go on another little excursion!
