Eat Yonezawa Beef (Wagyu) in Shirabu Hot Spring

The meat in the beef stew I always eat at home is pork !    That’s because beef is expensive and not so good for the price.    However, the price of brand beef is different, but the taste is also different.
I remember eating beef steak in Argentina once, but it was very tender and delicious.   When I asked to the waiter if they were exporting, he told that they  were all eaten by  the Argentines, so they were not exported.   The export volumn of Argentine wine is also low for the same reason.   That’s why I try to find Argentine wine first in Japanese wine shops.

The Japanese beef (Wagyu) gene was brought overseas and became a global brand, but Japanese beef still stands out.    Moreover, it is west high(ex. Kobe Beef, Matsuzaka Beef, Ohmi Beef) and east low in Japan.   Kyoto seems to have the highest per capita consumption of beef in Japan, but I was wondering if they were eating only vegetarian food.    Among these circumstances, the Yonezawa beef in Tohoku is doing its best.  Enjoy yourself slowly with local sake. 

Shirabu Onsen has a retro hot spring inn with a thatched roof.   Hot springs always overflow from the bathtub like a flood and are always fresh.   Since it is a retro, the voice of the next room will leak, but do not hit the wall one by one.   I was hit by a nervous foreigner in the next room.   Then I want to tell her not to stay in a retro inn.
