Conclude Your Day with Melt-in-Your-Mouth Marbled Horse Meat Sashimi at the Ranch-Owned Specialist
About this spot
A leading horse meat specialty restaurant in Kumamoto, a region known for horse meat production, distinguished by owning its own ranch and managing the entire process from raising to processing and serving. Horse meat sashimi, where freshness is paramount, displays varied character across cuts—from cherry-pink lean to snowy marbled fatty sections to chewy mane—and tasting them together in an assortment is the true pleasure. Served with grated ginger or garlic as seasonings and a slightly sweet soy sauce, the flavors melt on your tongue in rich satisfaction. Supplemented by dishes like fermented horse meat with natto and horse meat nigiri, it offers a luxurious dinner befitting the grand finale of your castle town food walk.

Best time to visit
About 1 hour 30 minutes. An early reservation right after opening ensures you can savor it at a relaxed pace.
