Suddenly craved Yakiniku and saw that comments on this place were generally good, especially for lunch. Then I recalled that a friend of mine had recommended this place before so I decided to give it a try. However, I was asked to pick a time slot of either 12-1pm or 1-2pm when I called to make a reservation, which made it quite rushy especially when the food arrived quite late and we did order some extra items on top of the set.There were quite some people when I arrived shortly after 12p.m. an
There were quite some people when I arrived shortly after 12p.m. and I was seated at the bar table.Each of us ordered a 298 Wagyu BBQ Set which included 3 pieces of thick cut Wagyu and 4 types of sliced Wagyu (2 slices each type). We also ordered some extra Ox Tongue. Some of the waiters didn't know much when we asked them what were included in the set but one was more knowledgeable and was happy to tell us the order and way of eating the different types of Wagyu.
I think it took at least 15 min for our food to arrive after ordering, even the appetizers and side dishes, which was why I was a bit shocked when they asked us to check out at 1p.m. because we didn't mean to be late!

The knowledgeable waiter said we should eat ox tongues first because they were seasoned and less fat. He also told us that they needed to be fully cooked. He also recommended that we could add some lemon juice to them after being cooked. Really need to add lemon juice after eating quite a few because they got quite salty as you ate more.

The ox tongues, even fully cooked, were very tender. Great texture!

The thick cut ox tongue, even fully cooked, was so so tender still! I really liked the 啖啖肉 yet tender texture!

Then we started cooking the other two pieces of thick cut Wagyu while cooking the last round of extra ox tongues. One thick cut was meat near the pat pat while another seemed to be chuck roll 和牛肉眼. So bad we forgot which was which.

Then we continued with the really thin sliced upper leg Wagyu. Normally such thin slices were usually eaten at shabu-shabu? Again they tasted great with Yakiniku too!

We continued with the Prime Kalbi 特選和牛小排, which looked way more fatty. I think the level of tenderness had gotten more or less the same as the previous Wagyu but this one offered a really rich taste of beef! Yummy!

Overall, the Wagyu were really of pretty high quality, especially given the price and the central location. A lunch visit is highly recommended. Just don't expect you can have a lot of time to enjoy the food.
