REVIEW: GYU NABE YONEKYU - TRADITIONAL DINING IN TOKYO JAPAN

Gyu-nabe Yonekyu honten 🐮

Saw this on @migrationology YouTube channel and it looked so good. I had to try this somehow during my trip to JP. I actually went there twice.. the first time i went there quite late and they're closing. I went there again and i managed to get in but not without some drama. They're apparently very "busy" and do not entertain solo customers. I think this is kind of rude la.. and proud coz they think they're very famous la. They eventually let me in but not without coming to remind me again how "busy" they are. They have been around for 133 years in Tokyo japan since their establishment in 1886. Their culture of welcome is apparently sounding the drum according to the number of guests. Come here if you're intending to dine in a traditional Japanese house.

Just some super high quality wagyu cooked in sukiyaki sauce. The marbling for the beef was.... truly beautiful. There's tofu, leek, mung bean noodles and most importantly the huge chunk of beef fat that makes the sukiyaki extra flavorful as it melts. The beef was also super tender and melt in your mouth. It is also a must to dip the beef into raw egg when eating sukiyaki to complete the experience.
