It comes on an iron plate, and you eat it in an unusual style, mixing in raw egg, demi-glace sauce, and cheese as it cooks. They also recommend eating it with rice.

I had the Beef Tongue stew. It was delicious. Really. The thick cut Beef Tongue was so tender I could cut it with chopsticks, yet in the mouth it felt moist and pleasantly springy. Even the base part was not dry at all, and every bite had top class flavor and texture.

A long-established Kobe yoshoku (Japanese-style Western food) restaurant's demi-glace sauce Omurice. At a time when soft and runny Omurice is everywhere, this one has the old-school thin omelet wrapper, packed tight with rice inside! I couldn't help but admire how beautifully they cooked it, and it reminded me of the Omurice at my family home.

I visited right when it opened. There were already more than ten people in line, but luckily I got in with the first seating. I ordered the C Course (JPY1,500). It came with Hamburger Steak topped with a fried egg, a crab cream croquette, rice, and miso soup. You can get a Large size of rice for free.

The Omurice is a classic old-school Omurice with chunky pieces of chicken, and the chicken rice is great too! The wonton soup also has big chunky wontons in it and tastes amazing. This set is the one I recommend.

I ordered a small curry rice and gomoku soba (noodles with mixed toppings). The curry rice had a nice kick of black pepper and tasted spicy. I dropped the egg yolk from the gomoku soba into the curry rice and mellowed the flavor for a nice change.

Omurice is excellent on its own, with the egg softly set yet fluffy in the best way, and the slightly sweet ketchup rice is simply delicious! The hayashi rice has a tomato base, but it is rich and tasty, packed with the good flavor of beef and onions, and super delicious. The savory aroma of the cheese is also great, making this a classic Omurice. Love it♡

Omurice wrapped in fluffy eggs and topped generously with Kuroge Wagyu (Japanese Black Wagyu). It makes a big impression at first glance. It goes well with the rich demi-glace sauce. The Kuroge Wagyu has a clear sweetness in the fat and an outstanding tenderness. Each bite brings out more richness, and it pairs perfectly with the rice!

The meat was tender too, and it was excellent. It’s also nice that you can get refills of rice and miso soup.

I chose the beef Omurice (the kind you split open). I waited with a free service coffee while listening to the sizzling sound of it being stir-fried. Was that butter? Meat? It smelled so good. Then out came a fluffy omelet set on top of red and white rice. Ah! Seeing it like this, I’m really glad I went with the split-open type.
