How Omi beef is graded and why buying a whole carcass changes what we can serve, what actually happens to dough inside a stone oven, and how to choose wine without reading the whole blackboard. These are the things we get asked at the counter, written down.

What do these columns cover?

Three subjects, mostly: Omi beef and what buying a whole carcass changes, the stone oven and what the fire does to the dough, and how to pick wine off the blackboard. They are written from the counter rather than from a book, so where we are unsure we say so.

Savor the Essence of Omi Beef Whole-Animal Purchasing with Ease

Our proud 'Omi Beef Whole-Animal Purchasing' is not just about acquiring large quantities; it's a crucial commitment to letting everyone fully savor the profound depth of Omi Beef.

The Diverse Appeal of Omi Beef Made Possible by Whole-Animal Purchasing

The greatest advantage of whole-animal purchasing is our ability to offer even the rarest cuts without waste. This allows us to carefully select and provide specific cuts of meat and the freshest parts that are typically difficult to source through general procurement.

  • Encountering Rare Cuts

    Rare cuts, available only in small quantities from a single animal, impress connoisseurs with their unique textures and flavors. You can easily sample the distinct tastes of each cut in our bar style. Enjoying the differences between cuts is one of the true pleasures of Omi Beef.

  • Commitment to Freshness

    By purchasing the entire animal, we can consistently offer Omi Beef in its freshest state. Meat maintained at peak freshness enhances its melt-in-your-mouth tenderness and rich umami. This is an essential factor in maximizing Omi Beef's potential.

  • Enjoying Diverse Cooking Methods

    Because we can source cuts ranging from lean to marbled, each with different textures, we can offer a wide array of cooking methods for a single ingredient. For instance, you can savor the meat's natural flavor with a simple grill, enjoy deep flavors in a wine-braised dish, or discover surprising combinations as creative bar cuisine – the possibilities are endless.

We invite you to experience the profound world of Omi Beef, made possible only by 'Omi Beef Whole-Animal Purchasing,' casually at our bar.

The questions we are asked most at the counter are about the beef and the fire. Which part of the Omi beef is this, and why does it change through the year? Why does a stone oven make a different pizza from a gas deck? Which wine on the blackboard goes with the grill, and which with the margherita? None of these need a long answer at the table, but they are worth writing down properly — so we do, here.

Reading is one thing; the oven is another. It is lit from 17:00 every day, two minutes from the east exit of Kusatsu Station.
