After a long time, I really wanted to eat grilled meat again. So, we four made a reservation and went there. It was a course with luxurious drinks, so the atmosphere was very pleasant.
Yakitori is indeed a delightful experience. Each person takes their own chopsticks and grows the meat on a net, until it reaches the desired level of grilling.
It's good to watch the pace at which food is served here and carefully timing your order for the next piece of meat. If you ask, they will also change the mesh net appropriately. The atmosphere isn't uncomfortable at all.
In a blink of an eye, it becomes the last order for the unlimited drink service.
The sashimi and drinks are of average quality. The service is not bad, but when asked whether it’s worth paying over 10,000 yen for a meal, I have some doubts. There are many other restaurants with better value options, so I might not visit here again.
Thank you for your hospitality!
During the lunch break, I left the office and was enveloped in the pleasant autumn breeze. The weather was clear and beautiful. It's a great season. On such days, I wish I could waste time reading books on a bench at Sunshine Park all day long. Unfortunately, that's not possible. At least I'll make the short lunch break meaningful.
While strolling along the丸の内地区，I finally arrived at the丸の内二重橋ビル。For some reason, I decided to have lunch at the restaurant street located underground in this building.
As I descend the escalator, several restaurants come into view. What should I eat today? As someone who is indecisive, I won’t make a decision immediately. Instead, I’ll visit each restaurant. The signboard of “Yakimaru Margo” catches my attention. Daytime grilled meat sounds great!
Entering the restaurant.
“Welcome. Would you like grilled meat or a set meal?”
“Ah, please order a set meal.”
Being guided to the counter seat, I examined the menu carefully.
“Please, I would like curry.”
“This is beef teriyaki. I understand.”
“ライスは大盛りで無料ですが、どのようにご希望されますか？”
“Ah, no, it’s normal, there’s no problem.”
“The toppings incur an additional fee, but will you include items like hot spring eggs?”
“えー、いえ、大丈夫です”
I completed the ordering process smoothly and then waited. However, for some reason, I chose a set meal instead of the expected grilled meat for lunch. The curry option caught my eye on the menu, so I changed my mind. Curry, definitely the choice.
Soon, salads and soups are served. Before the curry arrives, I use the salads to help my stomach settle.
Before I finished eating the salad, the curry arrived as well. The rice was placed neatly on a large round plate, and on top of that stood the dry curry. There was also powdered cheese sprinkled over it, so the aroma of a delicious mixture of curry and cheese filled the air.
Eat.
Yes, the coarse-milled minced meat that retains a slight texture of beef teriyaki is a truly outstanding product. It offers a satisfying chew with its biteable texture. The spiciness is well-balanced, making it suitable for everyone. It's delicious.
In the middle of cooking, I mix the curry and rice together completely. Curry is definitely more delicious when eaten mixed up. At home, we also mix our homemade curry together to eat. I’m always scolded by my wife or daughter for being mischievous and not following the proper way of eating. But I can’t really say those things to them. It’s a matter of who eats it in the best way, right? Laughing.
When mixed together, it also has the effect of making the food easier to eat. The spoon moves forward continuously.
In just a blink of an eye, I finished eating everything. The meal took 11 minutes.
Surprisingly, the portion size was quite large. There’s no doubt that I would have faced significant difficulties if I ordered the rice in a large portion. It was a wise decision. Offering free large portions always makes people hesitate, doesn’t it?
Full!
Delicious!
Thank you for your hospitality!
Next time, I really want to try grilled meat.
