Meeting the “popular” taste loved in the “first-class” district
This restaurant was recommended to me by a famous bartender in Ginza. I thought it must be an upscale restaurant in Ginza, but in appearance and the prices of the dishes lined up in the show window, it was just like a common Western-style restaurant in a downtown area. I was so pleased that I quickly opened the door. As the name suggests, the meat was making a delicious sound on the cabbage-lined griddle. It is served with a soy sauce-based onion sauce, and the refreshing flavor lingers in the mouth.The nostalgic taste of the restaurant’s retro interior “It hasn’t changed,” says owner Yoshihisa Todo, who is more than happy to hear the words of old fans.
