Kawamori

Some diners single out the premium tongue as a taste that stays with them, while others recommend ending the meal with garlic pilaf. It is an appealing combination for a night spent enjoying grilled meat, with a rice dish to round things off.

At Kawamori, premium loin and premium boneless short rib can be ordered grilled with salt or sauce. Try different cuts—short rib, tongue and outside skirt—and compare their flavours from one plate to the next. One diner who ordered the limited-quantity tongue tendon recalls its chewy texture and pronounced meaty flavour. Alongside familiar yakiniku favourites, trying distinctive cuts or limited-quantity dishes such as outside-skirt yukhoe is part of the appeal.

Drinks to pair with the yakiniku include beer, wine and the “red highball”, made with red wine. Build the meal around your mood: garlic pilaf to savour the meat’s flavours through to the end, or wine or a highball alongside the food.

Dine-in service is available, with table service. Dinner reservations are accepted and recommended if you are planning ahead.
