Tasting the lunch of three kinds of yaki-sai!

This time, I had the popular "3 kinds of Yaki-sai".

The set includes

3 kinds of saki-sai (meat saki-sai, shrimp saki-sai, cheese saki-sai)
Rice (with a raw egg to enjoy TKG)
Soup
A small bowl of cooked food (on this day, it was Bean-curd soup with Bean-curd soup seasoned with red pepper)

Three kinds of fried dumplings (meat, shrimp, and cheese), rice, raw egg, soup, and a small bowl of cooked food are included. Freshly steamed and hot, each had a different flavor: the deliciousness of the meat, the plumpness of the shrimp, and the richness of the cheese.

The freshly steamed and hot yakisai were,

Meat dumpling: juicy and satisfying
Shrimp saki-sai: Luxurious with a plump texture of shrimp
Cheese Yaki-sai: The rich cheese melts into the dough, giving the dish a Western twist.

You can change the taste with ponzu (Japanese citrus juice) and raayu (Chinese chili oil) on the table, so you will never get tired of the dish until the end. The price is around 1,100 yen, which is quite reasonable in the Omotesando area.
