Description

OVERVIEW

Savor a dinner that features mouthwatering kobe beef, a highly prized type of beef from a breed of native Japanese cattle known as wagyu. While all kobe beef is wagyu, not all wagyu beef is kobe. To be classified as kobe, the beef must come from pure-lineage Tajima gyu cattle that are born, raised, slaughtered and processed in the Hyogo Prefecture, of which Kobe is the capital. These stringent standards ensure the legendary quality of kobe beef. Your kobe beef dinner will be prepared on an open-flame teppanyaki iron grill, which has a flat surface unlike a traditional hibachi grill, which has an open grate. One bite of kobe beef and you will understand why it is so desirable. The texture is buttery, the tenderness extraordinary and the rich flavor absolutely epic. What else would you expect from cattle that are fed a special diet and regularly massaged to ensure the quality of their beef?
