Hida Kotte Ushi

Instagram spot

I followed the crowd, believing long queue means something but I was wrong. Compared to Sakaguchiya across the street, Hida Gyu Nigiri here comes way behind in terms of finesse; that final touch which separates the great from the good. The beef is tender alright but it’s not as aromatic as the other shop. Try both shops and you’ll understand. Good thing here is seatings. You can sit and eat and be a little more civilized. Using rice crackers as plates is also great idea; yummy and saves the earth at the same time.

We got 2 orders of “set C”. Amazing. We were tempted to order another two but there was a huge line up afterwards.
