Date no Gyutan Honpo Main Store

Because of the shortage of staff, you have to queue for a while before you can get a seat. There is only one breakfast, but you can pair it with other ingredients, such as yam, egg, and seaweed. The roasted beef tongue is thin and fragrant, and the rice is added with barley to make you feel full. Delicious! Basically everyone recommends this beef tongue breakfast, so I got up early to queue up. Maybe because of the high CP value, I queued for almost half an hour! But it was still worth it.

After visiting Sendai Station Mall, I found Date Beef Tongue. There weren't many people there, so I had dinner there. I ordered grilled beef tongue, braised beef tongue and steak salad. The grilled beef tongue was good, but not as soft and smooth as in Hong Kong, but chewy. The stewed beef tongue tasted ordinary. But the steak salad was very delicious. There is a takeaway shop outside the store, and we bought some ready-to-eat beef tongue to take home.

You must eat beef tongue in Sendai! Tonight's dinner is at Date's, which is located on the basement floor of Sendai Station. It is very easy to find by walking down the stairs. I chose the thick-cut beef tongue set and the thin-cut Sendai beef. It was very satisfying. The thick beef was juicy and the aroma of roasting spread from the root of the tongue to the palate. The beef soup was very fresh and I really wanted to have another bowl. My favorite is the thin-cut Sendai beef. The aroma of meat filled my mouth. The jelly sauce, white radish grated and vegetable leaves stimulated a sesame-like aroma. It was delicious! The whole meal cost 4,000 yen, which is great value for money! I will go to Rikyu to try it tomorrow.

Beef tongue is a specialty of Sendai, and Date beef tongue is the best among Sendai beef tongues. We went to the main store of Date beef tongue on Sendai Station Beef Tongue Street. The thick cuts are better than the thin ones, and they are very elastic. You can feel the beef tongue jumping between the teeth and tongue, which is very satisfying.

Sendai is the birthplace of Date beef tongue! The first time I heard about Sendai was when I read the article about Lu Xun and Mr. Fujino; the first time I came to Sendai was to apply for a three-year visa; the first time I ate Date beef tongue was because it was across from my accommodation! It was so delicious!
