I wanted to enjoy a little elegance, so I went to "Teppanyaki Iwakura" in Kagurazaka.
You can enjoy "teppanyaki x kaiseki cuisine" that uses plenty of seasonal ingredients! If you order the wine and sake pairing, you can enjoy the perfect marriage of food and sake to your heart's content.
Kagurazaka Kami Kosai Paitarian. Only one evening course is available at ¥5,400. The tomato pasta at the end is also attractive in that you can choose your favorite amount up to ~150g. (The photo shows 30g.) The foie gras speciality was especially excellent 🤤.
The restaurant's interior is a chi-based space where you can dine in a warm and relaxing atmosphere.
You can enjoy a wine called "ritocco" from the Bennett region. The restaurant offers a wide variety of appetizers that go well with red wine, making it a must-try for wine lovers. Pasta dishes are also available, and the cream pasta with crab and tomatoes is especially recommended.
The entire building, including the rooftop, is kintan
After enjoying "Niku Kappo kintan" at COREDO Muromachi, we moved to Iidabashi to visit "Yakiniku kintan" which opened on March 30.
Yes, it's a lunch hacienda!
Gorgeous set of Sendai beef (1,500 yen)
A combination of aged, thickly sliced beef tongue and ribs. No need to explain anymore! Especially the heavily seasoned tongue is of a quality that can only be found at kintan.
Wagyu Beef Nigiri (3 kinds)
Truffle, Unotan caviar, Seared
I am too full to be happy.
This restaurant is a kintan whole building, with private rooms on the first and third floors, tables on the second floor, and a terrace on the rooftop where you can enjoy the special menu!
In terms of location, it is a short walk from Iidabashi Station rather than Kagurazaka, and overlooks the Canal Cafe, which is popular during the cherry blossom viewing season.
Used for lunch♪ The ribs were cut a little thicker and the juices overflowing from the meat were irresistible! The atmosphere in the private room was very nice, so it could be used for special occasions such as dates. I would like to visit the restaurant again.
Okonomiyaki in Kagurazaka!
The restaurant has a nice atmosphere like a hideout (∇...) We were allowed to sit at the counter.
Caesar salad
Oboro Tofu
Kirishima pork steak
Beef tenderloin grilled with negi
Okonomiyaki with pork and egg
I asked for too much, lol!
But everything was delicious! Especially the meat and the negiyaki were the best.
Reservations are recommended because the restaurant was full even on a weekday late in the day.
The hideaway entrance has a very nice atmosphere. I felt that the wines, etc. were of the standard of Kagurazaka in general. Paella is the specialty of the restaurant, but I feel that it could be a little more creative (al dente, seasoning, portion size, etc.). The bar-like restaurant atmosphere may be suitable for after-parties, etc.
