What makes it special
The signature beef tongue is low-temperature cooked then sliced and served at the table. Dumplings feature famously thin 0.1mm skin for a shatteringly crispy texture—described as endlessly snackable. Horse meat offerings span both raw (sashimi) and grilled (salt-cured loin, sakura hot pot). Opener is a generous horse sashimi platter. Casual, high-energy vibe suited to group dining.
