Kisoji
Kisoji means way stations of the roads in Japan old times where weary travelers could rest. Kisoji branches spans from Tokyo, Osaka, Nagoya to Fukuoka and mainly focus on providing traditional Shabu-Shabu and Sukiyaki experience. There is also a cool detail as rooms in the restaurants are named after places and mountains where Kisoji were found
The ambiance are quite comfortable and I had a Sukiyaki lunch set with sukiyaki(beef and vegetables), raw egg, kishimen(noodles), rice, and pickles. Kuroge-Wagyu texture are extremely satisfying and carefully selected egg did provide silky and smooth texture. The sauce focus on sweeter side though so keep that in mind if you would like to try out this set. Shabu-shabu could be another option for a lighter taste.
