  • All Japanese beef is called wagyu, but kuroge wagyu is said to be the best of the best. At Oniku Karyu in Tokyo, Chef Haruka Katayanagi only uses kuroge wagyu in his dishes. With it, he makes specialty dishes like beef tongue stew, Japanese beef sirloin and Chateaubriand shabu-shabu, white beef tripe and white asparagus with miso dressing, Japanese beef sukiyaki Chateaubriand, and Japanese beef rare cutlet.

    Whenever I hear or read someone talking about going to Japan for the first time, sharing their travel itinerary/budgeting plans and making a triumphant point of saying that they're going to save money by 'not eating out much' I burst out laughing. What's the point in going to Japan if you're going to try and save money by eating convenience store food, ramen, Starbucks and weird Westernised basics on the fly served in commercial chain restaurants?! One of the main things that's 100% worth sacrificing and saving for when planning a trip to Japan is the extraordinary food; cut back on other indulgences but NEVER EVER the food you eat there. I'm sorry for this confession but it's all true. I laugh out loud on reflex every time and then scramble in a mild panic for a gentle explanation, so people know that my laughter is not meanspirited but coming from a totally different place. This was a fantastic video by the way, thank you so much for your hard work in filming and editing it.
