Kobe My Beef
I wanted a restaurant that would be able to serve me a small affordable piece of what I had been told was the best beef in the world. So much of the actual meal is the ambiance and this was as important to me as the food itself. I hoped to find a nice, friendly, small, elegantly lit place, full of charm. It was our last day in Kobe and I was on a mission. Three hours before having to be on board the MV explorer….I turned the corner to a small side street and spotted this big fat silver dude…a sign perhaps?
I peered past the white scrolls and opened the wooden door and what a scene…..just what I was looking for.
I walked in and took a place in the corner at the counter.
What a charming place. The counter and the surrounding tables were all so nicely set up.
People were grilling their food right in front of themselves on these hot plates…a Japanese style of cooking called Hibatchi.
Well, I guess my Kobi beef was too important for me to cook. The chef took care of it…
Out it came, placed in front of me, KOBE BEEF, garnished with all kinds of exotic vegetables.
The first bite said it all. Truly the best piece of meat I have ever had. So good that I had to stare at the last piece for quite some time, before saying goodbye to it and popping it in my mouth.
If any of you ever make it to Kobe, below are the details. Drop by and order some Kobe beef…you will not regret it.
A picture with Yuki, and a big thank you for the best meal I have had in months and off I was back to the MV Explorer.
