Kinosaki Onsen is especially lively during long holiday seasons such as summer vacation and Obon.
In recent years, more and more people are enjoying day trips that involve swimming at Takenohama beach, then relaxing in Kinosaki Onsen hot springs, enjoying a delicious meal, and then heading home.
After enjoying visiting various hot springs and strolling through the town, why not indulge in one of the greatest pleasures of travel: food?
At Irori Dining Mikuni, a restaurant specializing in Tajima beef, we offer a wide range of options, from lunch menus featuring the brand-name beef "Tajima Gen" to seasonal menus and children's menus.
This time, we'll introduce five recommended lunch menu items from Irori Dining Mikuni that we highly recommend you try this summer.
●For those who want something refreshing! Summer-only "Colorful Salad Tajima Black Steak Plate"

For those who want to enjoy meat in a refreshing way, even in the hot summer, we recommend this:
This is the "Colorful Salad Tajima Black Steak Plate," available only during the summer.
This visually refreshing dish features flavorful Tajima beef steak on top of Toyooka-grown "Stork-Friendly Rice," accompanied by a colorful salad of local vegetables.
Adding a soft-boiled egg transforms the flavor into a milder taste, allowing you to enjoy it without getting tired of it until the very last bite.
This seasonal lunch menu is only available during the summer.
Also, these menu items are served in modest portions, perfect for women!
This menu is perfect for those who can't eat a lot, those who want to enjoy just a little meat, or those who have already had a bit of a snack while walking around.
●A must-try in summer! Delicious "Tajima Gen Beef Curry"

On hot days, for some reason, I get an irresistible craving for curry.
Irori Dining Mikuni's "Tajima Gen Beef Curry" is a special original curry that allows you to fully enjoy the delicious flavor of the brand beef "Tajima Gen".
The base uses a soup that has been carefully extracted from beef bones over a long period of time.
The roux, simmered slowly, is infused with the rich umami and depth of flavor unique to Tajima brown rice, allowing you to enjoy the rich taste of the first bite, and the profound changes in flavor that unfold in the aftertaste.
The more you eat, the more the flavors build up, making it a dish you won't be able to stop eating.
This is also recommended for those who want to eat a substantial meal but don't want anything too heavy.
The spiciness is mild, so it's appealing to those who don't like spicy food and to children, as it can be enjoyed without worry.

In addition to enjoying it as part of a curry set, we also offer a mini curry as an option. Add it to your favorite menu item, such as steak or hamburger, and savor our special curry packed with the delicious flavor of Tajima beef.
●Recommended for those with a big appetite! "Meat-filled rice bowl" limited to 15 servings per day.

"Today I want to really savor some meat!"
For those people, we recommend the "Meat-Packed Rice Bowl," limited to 15 servings per day.
This popular dish features generous portions of bite-sized Tajima beef, making it incredibly satisfying. The chef's special sauce enhances the meat's flavor and pairs perfectly with rice. It's so delicious you won't be able to stop eating, making it perfect for those with a big appetite.
Since quantities are limited, we recommend visiting us as soon as possible if you're interested.
●For a slightly luxurious lunch: "Tajima Black Cutlet"

Since we're on vacation, we want to enjoy a slightly luxurious lunch.
For those people, I recommend Tajima Kuro Cutlet.
Inside the light and crispy batter is a juicy, flavorful Tajima brown rice.
With every bite, the delicious flavor of the meat spreads, offering a different kind of appeal compared to steak.
First, enjoy the rich flavor with our homemade demi-glace sauce. Then, by adding salt, wasabi, or mustard, you can enjoy a refreshing taste that further enhances the natural umami of Tajima brown rice. Please enjoy the various flavor variations to suit your preference.
This menu item is also popular with those who want to try Tajima Gen in a different way.
●A BBQ-style kids' meal that will bring a smile to your child's face!

We also offer a BBQ-style kids' lunch for children of kindergarten age and younger.
Summer means BBQ! This menu is a great way for children to easily enjoy the summer spirit.
This lunch plate features popular kid-friendly dishes like hamburgers and pork sausages, presented in a fun BBQ style.
It also comes with orange juice and sherbet, making it a great choice for children.
You can also substitute the roast beef with curry if you prefer, so you can choose according to your child's preference.
We encourage not only adults but also children to experience the delicious taste of Tajima Gen with your whole family.
Enjoy a relaxing lunch with your whole family.
