3. Dishes
This time I ordered "Variety wappameshi".
Variety wappameshi 1,900 yen
First of all, I will introduce the appetizer. Appetizer is cooked with horse meat and cowpea (bottom left), cut kelp (middle) and pickles (bottom right).
Horsemeat in Aizu is characterized by a rough taste. It is a subtle flavor that is mixed with horsemeat and burdock
The lush green kelp spreads the taste that broke the soup and made it viscous in the mouth.
Miso soup can be changed to "Kozuyu" if you pay extra fee. "Kozuyu" is a regional cuisine in the Aizu district of Fukushima Prefecture. It is a soup containing scallops, dried shiitake mushrooms, ginkgo, wood ear mushroom and vegetables.
Wappameshi like jewelry box waiting to wait has been served.
The ingredients are spring, mushroom, crab, salmon, egg. They are spreading on rice without regret.
「let's eat!」
It is a delicious taste that you want to clap one's hands.
The unique fragrance, crispy, umami that overflowed from the wild vegetables can soak into the "bloom" and you can fully enjoy the food of the mountains. And gift from the sea such as salmon and crab exquisitely harmonious and it is exceptional flavor that can not be expressed in words.
Adjustment of rice cooking is perfect, it is hot and plumps so that it can be loosened in the mouth.
This is the picture of inside the place.
There was a video of "Takino" on youtube.
