An unexpected combination in "Happy Turn Harami Yukhoe"

"Nikutoiro Specialty" Two-Way Yukhoe for Exploring Wagyu's Rich Flavor

The popular pairing brings together two distinctive yukhoe dishes: "Golden Egg Yolk Nikutoiro Yukhoe," made with carefully selected Wagyu loin in optimal condition that day, and "Black and White Harami Yukhoe with Aged White Balsamic and Fresh Pepper," which highlights the umami of skirt steak. "Golden Egg Yolk Nikutoiro Yukhoe" combines a special white soy sauce-based seasoning with rich egg yolk that has been frozen to concentrate its flavor, bringing out the natural sweetness and melt-in-the-mouth texture of the Wagyu. In contrast, "Black and White Harami Yukhoe with Aged White Balsamic and Fresh Pepper" is simply finished with white balsamic vinegar, salt, and fresh pepper to showcase the natural umami of the meat directly. The contrasting preparations offer two different expressions of Wagyu in a single serving.

Within the course, it is served as a "palate cleanser" between salt-grilled and sauce-grilled selections, refreshing the palate before the next dish. Easy to eat by hand, this popular item combines playful presentation with careful attention to flavor.

  "Premium Harami"

  The rare "Premium Harami," sometimes unavailable depending on supply, uses only top-grade cuts for rich flavor and a tender texture.

From the Tabiiro Editorial Team

Rather than limiting selections to specific regional Wagyu brands, the restaurant carefully sources Wagyu in the best condition available each day, allowing different flavors to be encountered with every visit. Each slice is assessed for meat quality and marbling, then grilled to the ideal degree for that particular cut, bringing out the natural umami of the beef in every carefully prepared dish.
