和幸日本燒肉料理 (Hong Kong)

Towards the end of our 2009 Asia trip, we visited a Japanese BBQ restaurant that we found out about on the internet. This restaurant is known for their A4 to A5 class of Japanese Wagyu beef. We ordered the following dishes:



1) 特價宮崎縣綾牛 A4 (Special Miyazaki beef which is A4 class): This is the special promotion of the night. It is a big platter of beef from the Miyazaki region. The beef is sliced thinly and served with scallions. The waiter recommended us to put the beef on the grill for only one to two minutes. I like the barbequed taste of beef, but I think the texture can be improved if they serve thicker slices of beef.



2) 秘製燒汁黑毛和牛肋骨肉 (Special Kalbi beef): This beef is again served with scallions. The slice of the beef is thicker, but it is not fatty enough.



3) 米沢和牛香蒜五花肉 (Yonezawa beef): This is the best dish of the night, so we placed an additional order of it. The cut of the beef is from the belly region. There is a nice spread of fat within the beef.



Lastly, the restaurant was doing a promotion in which they ask patrons to kiss for at least 20 seconds and let them take a picture. When this is done, they would give out a free order of 愛情豚 (Love Pork). My husband and I did this and scored the free food.



Overall, this is a nice restaurant with decent food and nice ambience. However, the beef served in Hong Kong simply cannot be compared with those served in Japan. The ones served in Japan are so tender and smooth that it is far superior.
