0.000 HBDI travel the world Part 38: 言の葉 (Kotonoha Tokyo)
<html> <h1>My favorite Restaurant in Tokyo is Kotonoha!</h1> <p>It is run by a friend who is not going the expensive and great path, he wants as many people as possible to enjoy his fantastic food (so affordable and awesome is the path he chose)</p> <p>The restaurant has two entrances. Left side for normal guests, where you can sit at the counter or at tables in the restaurant. Right entrance goes directly to Separees section, so Celebrities, politicians etc. can have privacy from the public. (The table design is different in the Separees, so check my pictures for that)</p> <h1><img src="https://s10.postimg.org/tp6itidll/I_Travel_the_1.jpg" alt="I Travel the(1)" width="800" height="800"/><a href="https://postimg.org/image/82richf11/" target="_blank"><br> </a></h1> <h1>Kotonoha offers Lunch and Dinner</h1> <h2>LUNCH</h2> <h3><em>They have a special menu, 450g of A5 Grade Wagyu for 6.000 Yen</em>.</h3> <p>I ate this a couple of times with a friend, but my friend the owner told me, that they have it as (click)bait on the Menu, no normal human would order a 450g Steak for lunch... (so they were making a huge loss every time I showed up for lunch:)</p> <p><img src="https://s22.postimg.org/vckecklsh/906477_10151937099648444_318776061_o.jpg" alt="906477_10151937099648444_318776061_o" width="600" height="800"/><a href="https://postimg.org/image/8nv7d04el/" target="_blank"><br> </a></p> <p>Here is the 450g Lunch menu. It is impossible to eat this alone! So we usually ordered more rice and shared it with 2-3 persons. </p> <p><img src="https://s17.postimg.org/q04xhu7q7/1403351_10151937100103444_562035776_o.jpg" alt="1403351_10151937100103444_562035776_o" width="600" height="800"/><br> </p> <h2>DINNER</h2> <p>Usually we start Dinner with some entrees and drinks.</p> <h2>Japanese Mushrooms with scallops </h2> <p><img src="https://s17.postimg.org/buz4g0yov/1460238_10151940904148444_1768633490_n.jpg" alt="1460238_10151940904148444_1768633490_n" width="296" height="394"/><br> </p> <h2>Some delicious starters </h2> <p><img src="https://s17.postimg.org/edktgpkf3/1462883_10151940903948444_2017845797_n.jpg" alt="1462883_10151940903948444_2017845797_n" width="720" height="960"/><br> </p> <h2>A5 Grade Wagyu (2500Yen to 2800Yen)</h2> <p>Sirloin and Fillet Steak (This steak melts in your mouth. The flavor is so incredible, I have converted vegetarians into Meateaters. If they are in Japan, they eat meat...)<br> <img src="https://s17.postimg.org/4hjqh2en3/1466234_10151941030068444_888751830_n.jpg" alt="1466234_10151941030068444_888751830_n" width="720" height="960"/><br> </p> <h2>Champion Wagyu Filetsteak</h2> <p>This is a Super-Wagyu Steak. I rate it even higher than Kobe Beef (which is way over-rated) </p> <p>Usually only the emperor or other super rich individuals could ever get their hand on this Wagyu. It is so rare, that even the chef of this restaurant was only able to source it a couple of times in his life. </p> <p>This did set us back 8000 Yen per 100g, but it was <strong>worth every penny</strong> (we only paid the wholesale price, normally that 100g would go for 25.000Yen (250$)</p> <h3>(As you can see, the table is different, this picture was taken on a different day in one of the Separees, when my friend called me to come to the restaurant as he was able to source this super rare Wagyu)<br> <img src="https://s22.postimg.org/pw1qi6sep/336310_10151572328093444_504705846_o.jpg" alt="336310_10151572328093444_504705846_o" width="600" height="800"/><br> <br> Scallop</h3> <p>Super tasty and delicious </p> <p><img src="https://s22.postimg.org/lo6y9fqz5/547806_10151940904068444_1113651333_n.jpg" alt="547806_10151940904068444_1113651333_n" width="720" height="960"/><br> </p> <h2>Uni-Don (Sea-Urchin Ball with Sushi Rice)</h2> <p>This is Uni from <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C5%8Cma,_Aomori">Oma</a>, the diver who get the Sea-Urchin out of the sea, labels the glas with his signature. Of course this is Japan, the Sea-Urchin is super fresh, as it is delivered within hours to the restaurant. </p> <p>This Don is <strong>not offered on the menu</strong>, it's hidden secret dish. It was only 2000 Yen, which is incredible given the price of Oma Uni.</p> <p><br> <img src="https://s22.postimg.org/bs5v9sl75/857947_10151943356748444_1770084749_o.jpg" alt="857947_10151943356748444_1770084749_o" width="600" height="800"/><br> </p> <h2>Our last plate of Sirloin Steak... to finish the evening ;)</h2> <p><br> <img src="https://s22.postimg.org/6i0wii0y9/902859_10151943350748444_2135917208_o.jpg" alt="902859_10151943350748444_2135917208_o" width="600" height="800"/><br> </p> <h2>RESTAURANT DETAILS:</h2> <p>言の葉 Kotonoha </p> <p>QUAL Ebisu 2F, 1-16-31, Ebisu, Shibuya-ku, Tokyo, 150-0013</p> <p><br></p> <h1>Please leave a comment if you like this post and if you ever tried Japanese wagyu in Japan!</h1> <h1><a href="https://postimg.org/image/smz517hcj/"><em>If you like my Post,</em> </a><a href="https://steemit.com/@knozaki2015"><em><strong>please follow me!</strong></em></a> </h1> <h3>I am blogging about the following topics :</h3> <ul> <li><strong>I travel the world</strong> (Travel and <a href="https://steemit.com/food/@knozaki2015/i-travel-the-world-part-25-cafe-viena-feat-the-worlds-best-sandwich-ny-times">Restaurant Blog</a>)</li> <li><strong>Exposed</strong> (Uncovering Stories you need to know)</li> <li><strong>Lifehacks</strong> (How to save money, Introduction of cool products) </li> <li><strong>SPOTTED</strong> (Limited Edition Food and Drinks)</li> <li><strong>Steemperlen</strong> (<a href="https://steemit.com/deutsch/@knozaki2015/steemperlen-1">German Version)</a></li> <li><strong>SQUEEZE</strong> (Interview Series) </li> <li><strong>COOKED</strong> (<a href="https://steemit.com/food/@knozaki2015/fantastic-seafood-paella-cooked-2-with-the-master-of-paella-gargon">4 Episodes Cooking Series</a>)</li> </ul> </html>
