★Previous Chapters Summary★
It was about two weeks ago when my bride, upon seeing the flyer placed in her mailbox, said, "I want to go to Yuzan!!("´д´)ｸﾜｯ). The idea has progressed from the initial stage to the concrete stage. This week, we received phone reservations (it was an AI-driven automated system), and today, the Wheeling gang actually carried out the plan...
It’s about 1.8 kilometers from home, so if you have a car, it’s a reasonable distance to travel by vehicle. However, since the poor people in Wheeling don’t own cars, it’s a bit of a hassle to drive for over 20 minutes to get there. Initially, I checked the booking situation online and found that all reservations for that day were already full after 5 p.m., so I made a reservation at 4:40 p.m. I arrived at the venue just before 4:30 p.m., and they let me into the seating area without waiting until 4:40 p.m. At the front desk, there was a display that said “Customers without reservations will have to wait for 240 minutes.” That really made me angry.
The menu is decided in advance, and this information is communicated to the staff. All subsequent order details are processed via a touchscreen.
Seasonal Yuzu庵 Menu: 3,480 yen (Tax included: 3,828 yen)
All-you-can-eat Alcohol/Soft Drinks Package: 1,390 yen (Tax Included)

So, at this point, the restaurant was almost fully booked. I ordered a rumble steak first, and then sushi, but it took a while for them to bring it out. Well, since the situation was quite chaotic, I thought there was no other way.
The broth in the pot offers two types of broth to choose from.
Seasonal Savor (Currently referred to as "Water Stewed Broth")
Yuzu An Kombu Daishi
Sukiyaki Dashi
Spicy Hot Pot Sauce
Tuna Best Dashi
This time, since my bride took on the sponsorship role, I let her make the choice. The result was a combination of kelp broth and sukiyaki broth. Personally, I had a strong interest in hot pot (´・ω・｀).
So, I ordered the following dishes in a random order. The quantities are not accurate, as they rely on memory.
Aged Beef Shabushabu x 8
1 piece of Akama-yaki-style soy sauce pork cutlet
Vegetable Combo x 2
Tuna Steak Deluxe with Three Kinds (Medium, Red Meat, Tuna Boneless) x3
6個の塩レモン握り（この商品は非常に好評で、追加注文が続いた）
3個の焼きサーモンハラス握り
I wasn’t really expecting much in terms of quality just by leaving the food unattended, but this was truly amazing!!!!(ノ・ω・)ノオオオォォォ-
Meat, sushi, vegetables—every ingredient is of high quality. The meat and fish are shiny, while the vegetables have a crisp texture. Everything is excellent!!(((ｕдｕ*)ｩﾝｩﾝ
Instead of using brands like Super Dry or Premol, this restaurant serves pure-pressed beer. After eating a lot of beef for a long time, I was extremely satisfied. After consuming so much food and drinks, I used the 15% discount coupon that came with the menu, but the total cost didn’t even reach 5,000 yen per person. It’s a really impressive cost-performance ratio! (´;ω;`)ｳｯ… My wife immediately said, “Next time, let’s go to Crab Shabu!” Crab Shabu is a limited-time offer until early January. ( ´_ゝ｀)ﾌｰﾝ
