When Fresh is Too Fresh
We are in Kobe for a couple of days. The city fully recovered from the 1995 earthquake and the Rokko artificial island where we are staying developed in very impressive ways. Yesterday, we had a teppanyaki dinner with a live shrimp cooked in front of us. The twisting and screaming of the shrimp on the iron griddle was a little bit too much for May who settled on the beef, which luckily did not come alive on the dining table. The Koyo-Tei restaurant at the 21st floor of the Kobe Bay Sheraton Hotel & Towers is a good place to get introduced to this type of Japanese cuisine. Today, we sampled the famous Kobe beef at Wakkoku. This locally-raised beef is massaged by hand and fed beer. I have just one thing to say: yummy!
