Hotel New Otani (Tokyo) has been serving the “Kobe Beef & Matsusaka Pork Super Grand Hamburg Steak” since February 6.
The hamburg steak patty combines Kobe beef, known for its fine marbling, with Matsusaka pork raised 1 to 2 months longer than the standard 5–6 month fattening period. Binders and seasonings are kept to a minimum, and the mixture is blended according to the chef’s unique ratio. After being grilled on a teppan iron plate, the surface is seared over charcoal and finished with a Shaliapin sauce made by heating grated onions.
The lunch set (6,500 yen) includes a healthy vegetable salad bar, hamburg steak, rice or bread, and coffee or tea, with soup available for an additional charge. The dinner set (10,000 yen) includes a healthy vegetable combination salad, onion soup, hamburg steak, rice or bread, dessert, and coffee or tea.
The venue is the steakhouse “Rib Room” inside Hotel New Otani Tokyo. Serving hours are from 11:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. for lunch, and from 5:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. for dinner. All prices are subject to an additional service charge.
