最初に運ばれてきたmotsu・senは、見た瞬間から期待を裏切らない迫力があって、ぷるっとした脂の透明感がそのまま旨さを語っていた。一口食べれば、下処理の丁寧さがすぐにわかるほど臭みがなく、脂は甘くてとろけるのに後味は驚くほど軽い。タレのコクと香ばしさが合わさると、ホルモンの旨味が一段階も二段階も引き上がり、気づけば箸が止まらなくなる“危険な一皿”だった。続いて焼き台に乗せた特製漬けハラミは、焼き始めた瞬間から香りが立ち上がり、表面がカリッと香ばしく、中はしっとりジューシーで、噛むたびに肉汁とタレの旨味があふれ出す。焦げたタレのほろ苦さがまた絶妙で、白ご飯にもお酒にも合う、まさに主役級の存在感だった。牛タンは並べられた瞬間に質の良さが伝わる美しい色合いで、薄すぎず厚すぎずの絶妙な厚み。さっと炙るだけでサクッと歯切れがよく、噛むほどにタン本来の旨味が広がる。塩と胡椒のシンプルな味付けだからこそ素材の良さが際立ち、レモンを軽く絞れば後味が一気に軽くなって、何枚でも食べられそうな危うさがあった。赤身とサシの盛り合わせは、部位ごとの個性がはっきりしていて、赤身は噛むほどに旨味が深まり、サシの入った部位は口の中でとろっとほどける贅沢さ。ごまやタレが名脇役として肉の旨味を引き立て、一皿の中で味の変化を楽しめる満足度の高い盛り合わせだった。もつ刺し風の一皿は、艶やかな見た目からしてすでに美味しく、ねっとりとした食感の中に濃厚なコクがあり、噛むほどに旨味が広がる。下に敷かれた玉ねぎのシャキシャキ感としその爽やかさがもつの濃厚さを受け止め、添えられた辛子を少しつけると味がキュッと締まってまた違う表情を見せる。お酒のアテとしても、最初の一品としても抜群の存在感だった。そして、そのすべてを受け止めてくれたのがキリン一番搾りの生ビール。キンキンに冷えたジョッキにきめ細かい泡がふんわりと乗り、ひと口飲めば麦の旨味が広がりつつ、肉の脂をすっと流してくれる。焼肉の合間に飲むたびに気持ちがリセットされ、次の一皿への期待を自然と高めてくれる最高の相棒だった。 The first dish to arrive, motsu-sen, made a powerful impression the moment I laid eyes on it—it didn’t disappoint. The translucent, jiggly fat spoke volumes about its deliciousness. One bite revealed just how meticulously it had been prepared—there was no gamey odor, and while the fat was sweet and melt-in-your-mouth tender, the aftertaste was surprisingly light. Combined with the rich depth and savory aroma of the sauce, the umami of the offal was elevated by a notch or two, making it a “dangerous dish” that had me unable to put my chopsticks down. Next, the special marinated harami placed on the grill released its aroma the moment it started cooking. The surface was crispy and fragrant, while the inside remained moist and juicy, with the meat juices and the savory sauce bursting out with every bite. The slight bitterness of the caramelized sauce was exquisite, and it paired perfectly with both white rice and sake—truly a dish with a star-quality presence. The beef tongue had a beautiful color that conveyed its high quality the moment it was placed on the table, with a perfect thickness—neither too thin nor too thick. A quick sear made it crisp and tender, and the more you chewed, the more the tongue’s natural umami spread throughout your mouth. The simple seasoning of salt and pepper really highlighted the quality of the ingredient, and a light squeeze of lemon instantly lightened the aftertaste, creating a dangerous temptation that made me want to eat slice after slice. The assortment of lean and marbled cuts clearly showcased the distinct character of each cut. The lean cuts deepened in umami the more you chewed, while the marbled cuts melted luxuriously in your mouth. Sesame and sauce served as perfect supporting actors, enhancing the meat’s umami, making this a highly satisfying platter where you could enjoy a variety of flavors within a single dish. The offal sashimi-style dish looked delicious even before tasting it. It had a rich, deep flavor within its chewy texture, and the umami spread with every bite. The crispness of the onions and the refreshing zest of the shiso beneath balanced the richness of the offal, and adding a little of the accompanying mustard tightened the flavor and revealed a whole new dimension. It made an outstanding impression, whether as a snack with drinks or as the first course. And the Kirin Ichiban Shibori draft beer perfectly complemented it all. The fine foam floated gently atop the ice-cold mug; with just one sip, the rich flavor of the malt spread across the palate while effortlessly washing away the meat’s fat. Every time I took a sip between bites of grilled meat, it reset my palate and naturally heightened my anticipation for the next dish—it was the perfect companion.
