Ichi Ni San
Ichi Ni San – Since I was in Japan, I might as well continue on the theme down here and provide my most memorable food experience. There are many, but I find these two dishes stand out alot for me. If there is one of the few things you want to try to eat in Japan, it’s usually Kobe Beef. That was definitely in one of my do list. I had initially planned to go to this one well known wayu beef restaurant that was an average of $178 CDN per person. However, my girlfriend caught wind of my travels in Japan. She suggested a cheap alternative to it. It’s delicious and satisfying and leaving both your wallet and your belly full! That suggestion is Ichi Ni San – a well known beef loin cutlet in Akiharbara. The wait time for this place usually averages around 60-90 minutes, so get there early so you don’t wait too long. I thoroughly enjoyed this meal because I get to cook each piece meat to my desire wellness. The different sauces they provide gives a pack of different flavour as well so it’s a fun variety of taste experience in your mouth. The meat was so tender and so flavourful. I was worried since it’s a fried cutlet that the oil would steep into the meat that it would be greasy. However, it’s fried for 60 seconds so it’s not oily at all. It was so good, that I had to go back another time! The price point is really reasonable, and the price goes up if you choose a larger size cutlet. A must go!
