I want to eat it, but it's hard to line up hungry for hours like when I was in Red Rock ... If I didn't get motivated, I found a store in "Motomura" in Shimbashi, a sanctuary for office workers!
There was such a long line at the Shibuya store, but no one was lined up at the Shinbashi store on that day! Just as a chance, I decided to go down to the basement and enter the store.
It's a small shop with only 3 tables and L-shaped counter seats, but this is also a hideaway-like atmosphere! The writer arrived at the store around 14:00, but the fact that it was past the rain and lunch peak hours on that day was even more successful, and there were only two groups of customers in the store.
――I thought, but it was full in less than 30 minutes ... Fortunately, they didn't line up, but even after that, the customers changed and the store was almost full. After all it seems that it is still a popular store.
Basically, only the "beef cutlet set" with barley rice and miso soup is available. You can change the size and amount of beef cutlet, and add tororo to barley rice.
This time, I decided to order the "Beef and Mugimeshi Tororo Set" (1,300 yen).
Then, in less than 3 minutes, a beef cutlet set with barley rice, tororo, miso soup, and new incense was delivered. How fast! This is also nice for busy business people.
Beef cutlet, which is tightly dressed in fine clothing, is cut into bite-sized pieces with a thickness of about 1 cm. Looking at the cross section, the meat is extremely rare! The red meat that shines like a bright red ruby in the light invites me as a carnivorous girl.
Beef cutlet comes with wasabi, soy sauce, and horseradish for seasoning, so you can use it as you like. In addition, the rock salt provided on the table is also for beef.
First of all, do not attach anything, just beef katsu.
The batter is fragrant and crispy, and the lean meat wrapped inside is irresistible because of the soft texture that melts on the tongue. In a nutshell, this is like a tuna fatty tuna! The taste and sweetness of the meat swims around the ocean in your mouth.
Next, I will season it and eat it.
It goes well with any condiment , but I feel that wasabi and salt simply enhance the deliciousness of the meat. Recommended because it does not spoil the texture of delicate batter.
Since the batter is thin and light, it does not have the heavy oiliness peculiar to fried foods and is completely eaten. This might have been "additional loin and" (small 500 yen and up) ...
On this day, 80% of the customers are the same as the author. While I was busy, all the staff were kind and warm, and even one person created a cozy space.
By the way, "Motomura" has stores in Hamamatsucho in addition to Shibuya and Shinbashi, and Ikebukuro also has an affiliated store named "Iroha". I don't have the energy to line up in the Shibuya procession, but I want to eat the exquisite rare beef cutlet! For those who say, at other stores, depending on the timing, you may be able to enter without waiting. If you happen to visit nearby on a rainy afternoon, be sure to take a look!
