A shop that lamb lovers should definitely visit will open today (June 17th) in Shibuya, Tokyo. It is a Genghis Khan specialty store "Genghis Khan Yoichi" of "aged lamb".
The store offers a strong flavor of "aged rum". Lamb meat is usually young and moist. By aging it and adjusting the amount of water, it is said that the taste and aroma are tightly concentrated.
I would like to introduce Genghis Khan of such aged lamb because I was able to experience it a little earlier.
Start with a set of lamb and onions
When you enter the store, the "Genghis Khan set" (980 yen) for the number of people will be prepared. Assorted lamb and onions.
Bake this in the Genghis Khan pot prepared for each seat. It is recommended to bake one side, turn it over, and pull it up while it is rare.
The unique scent of rum that spreads the moment you eat it. And as expected, the dark meat of taste enough to bite is full of endlessly.
It is lightly seasoned with salt and pepper in advance, so please taste the taste of the meat without adding sauce at first. You should be able to clearly feel the taste of the concentrated meat.
The onions are also sweet and delicious. It is thick and juicy inside even if it is baked well. With a crispy and refreshing texture, it is ideal for alternating with meat.
The basic style is to order additional meat and vegetables. The additional menu is 880 yen for one serving of meat. Vegetables include bean sprouts (280 yen) and green onions (280 yen). In addition, tofu salad (520 yen) and kimchi (380 yen) on the side menu, beer, chu-hi, and shochu on the alcohol menu (380 yen and up) are also available.
Enjoy lamb and coriander
If you are not good at it, we strongly recommend adding coriander (380 yen). This is not baked, but topped with raw lamb.
Both sheep and coriander have a unique flavor. At first glance, the two seemed to be in a fight, but the vivid flavor of coriander enhances the taste of the meat and makes it even more delicious. I've never known such a good combination ...! If you are inexperienced, please give it a try.
After enjoying the meat, try "Horseradish rice" (320 yen).
The savory and vibrant horseradish flavor refreshes the mouth, which has become slightly heavier due to the efforts with meat.
At the same time, be sure to try the "Lamb shoulder meat coriander salt soup" (520 yen). The light salty soup, lamb shoulder meat and coriander so thick that you can't see the bottom of the bowl. Well-cooked lamb shoulder meat loosens in the mouth.
Add wasabi rice to this and it's delicious even if it's Ochazuke style. If you don't like coriander, try the "spicy lamb shoulder soup" (520 yen).
There are counter seats, and you can order a set for one person, so you can go alone. You can take it with your sheep-loving companion. I want you to enjoy a rich sheep experience.
