Hida Takayama : Hida beef at Maruaki (丸明飛騨高山店)

Because we had to leave at 2 p.m. by bus, we hurried to the yakiniku restaurant to eat Hida beef.Speaking of Hida Takayama, Hida beef is MUST food to eat !

Maruaki Hida Takayama branch

Where?

Maruaki is located within 5 minutes walk from HIda Takayama bus terminal.
So, it’s good location to have meal before leaving from the bus terminal.

Restaurant is next to the meat store

They sell thin-sliced small pieces of Hida beef for 250 yen (per 100g). Inexpensive. Someday I want to stay at the hotel having kitchen in the room and have dinner with their Hida beef 🙂
Maruaki run meat shop (Hida beef and so on).

There’s no man outside because of heavy snowfall, but there were lots of people in the shop and the restaurant.

We were sandwiched with workers group and Chinese couples. It seemed that half of visitors were from abroad.

Weekdays’ lunchtime is inexpensive !

Maruaki have inexpensive Weekday’s lunch menus. So I recommend you visit there on weekdays if you have lunch at there. There’s steak, beef bowl, yakiniku and so on. Of course, everything is Hida beef !
Lunch set have salads and boiled vegetables.

Hida beef steak lunch

Hida beef steak lunch (飛騨牛ステーキ御膳, 2780 yen). It’s expensive as lunch, but it’s Hida beef. So, I think it’s affordable.
They put thinly sliced fried beaten egg (called “Kinshi tamago”) on the rice and put the steak on it. And thinly sliced onion, deep fried pumpkin. Perilla and wasabi zuke (pickled wasabi).　Like bento box. Beautiful.

As you see, those slices of Hida beef was so fatty, juicy and tasty.
Hida beef is great ! Serving the steak with sliced onion and wasabi zuke is right because sometime I needed those light foods while eating the steak because the steak had much fat.

Grilled Hida beef with Hooba miso

My friend ordered Grilled Hida beef with Hooba miso (飛騨牛ほう葉焼き御膳, 1780 yen).

Marbled Hida beef and vegetables. He grilled it as he like on the shichirin (charcoal grilling facility).

The Chinese couples’eye fixed it and they ordered it soon without rice. I agree. grilling it on the shichirin is fun and flavorful.
Of course he gave some of it to me. But I wanted to eat it with season salt and pepper only, without hooba miso.
