Hida Takayama : Hida beef steak and yakiniku at Hidagyu Maruaki (丸明 飛騨高山店)

GIFU (Shirakawago, Takayama)

We had to leave at 2 p.m. by bus, so we hurried to the yakiniku restaurant to enjoy Hida beef. When it comes to Hida Takayama, eating Hida beef is a must!

Hidagyu Maruaki (丸明 飛騨高山店) is one of the most popular yakiniku restaurants serving Hida beef in the Takayama area.

Maruaki is located within 5 minutes walk from Hida Takayama bus terminal and JR Takayama station. Many highway buses gather to this terminal from various parts of Japan. So, it’s good location to have meal before leaving from the bus terminal.

Maruaki also operates a butcher shop next to the restaurant, where they sell thinly sliced pieces of Hida beef for 250 yen per 100g. It’s very affordable. Someday I want to stay at the hotel having kitchen in the room and have dinner with their Hida beef 🙂

Although there was no one outside due to heavy snowfall, the butcher shop and restaurant were both busy. We were surrounded by a group of workers and Chinese couples. It seemed that half of the visitors were from overseas.

Maruaki have inexpensive Weekday’s lunch menus. Steak, beef bowl, yakiniku and so on on the weekdays’ lunch menu. Of course, everything is Hida beef ! Lunch set have salads and boiled vegetables.

Salads included in all set

This is a Hida beef steak over the rice. While it may seem expensive for lunch, it’s Hida beef, so I think the price is reasonable. 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). Beautiful bento box.

As you can see, the slices of Hida beef were so fatty, juicy, and tasty. Hida beef is great! The sliced onions and wasabi zuke are a good match. Sometimes, I need lighter side dishes while eating steak because the steak has a lot of fat.

My friend ordered Grilled on Hoba Magnolia Leaf Set.

Marbled Hida beef and vegetables. He grilled them to his liking on the shichirin (charcoal grilling facility). There’s miso on the hoba leaf.

The Chinese couples’ eyes were fixed on it, and they ordered it soon after without rice. I agree. Grilling on the shichirin is fun and flavorful. My friend gave me some of it. Of course, it’s tasty with miso, but I think eating it with salt and pepper only is much better than with hoba miso. The miso is sweet, and I wanted to taste the meat’s flavor more clearly.

All weekday lunch sets come with one drink and dessert. My coffee and ice cream.
