This was my second visit to Minokichi and this time, they were featuring their Spring menu. This time around, we chose the Moon set which was ¥7500 per person. Set aside 2-3 hours for lunch as you wouldn't want to rush through the courses. You want to savour each course and the waiter assigned to us both times was knowledgeable and fluent enough in English to make this a great cultural learning experience. The restaurant requires 2 working days notice for halal menu reservation and they're pretty strict about this so plan your visit in advance. The courses (may be different depending on what is available): 1.

Add to this the very knowledgable server who explained each course, from ingredient to technique as well as Japanese cultural references. Keiseki meals run long, and our 6-8 course lunch is considered short. If you book a dinner menu, beef shabu-shabu is available as well as an additional course. Our lunch Read more...
