Yakiniku Toraji


Landon actually started studying the menu for Toraji Restaurant months before our trip.  You can check out the menu here

The restaurant was about 2 minutes walk from our hotel if you know where you're going. It took us about 5. There was a sign-up sheet in the front, but we only had to wait about 10 minutes.

Landon knew exactly what he wanted and in no time at all we were grilling up some wagyu.

The grill had vents all around it so that the smoke was immediately sucked up as the meat cooked. Cool yah!

The meal was fabulous. If you're ever in the Ikebukuro Sunshine City area you should check it out.

Oh My! I'm drooling looking at your pics. I can only imagine how tender and tasty it was. So how did you survive the missle scare this morning? Unbelievable how long it took for them to tell the public it was a false alarm. SMH.
