Kobe Steak in Kobe Japan
Kobe Steak in Kobe from Anthony Anello on Vimeo.
The day had finally come, I was in Kobe Japan and was on a mission to eat a Kobe steak. This mission was fulfilled and the amazing meat that hit my pallet was worth every penny. Yes, I spent a lot of penny’s. The Kobe beef myth of cows getting messaged their entire life is false. There is no profession in Japan to be a cow massager. It is how they breed the cattle and what they feed it. It causes a marble look to the meat infusing fat with the beef. When cooked the fat juices go into the meat and the taste is amazing. Also, when the chief cooked it on all sides, that was a nice touch. Check out the video to see the marble I am talking about.
We ordered 3 types of Kobe beef. I ordered the Special Kobe Sirloin, the chief’s recommendation, and a tenderloin and another sirloin (non Special). My favorite was the Tenderloin. It was like butta. However all of the steaks were amazing. I think the video says it all. The name of the restaurant is Wakkoqu. The chief cooked all the food right in front of us. Great food. Great time. Wish I could have gone back the next day for a second helping.
