Autumn is the season for appetite. In Kinosaki, a famous hot spring resort, we recommend trying Tajima Beef, a brand of beef representing Hyogo Prefecture. Our hotel uses Tajimaguro, a type of beef from Ueda Livestock, which is particularly highly regarded among the many varieties of Tajima Beef.

1. What is Tajima Beef?

Hyogo Prefecture's pride and joy, Tajima Beef, is the highest quality Wagyu beef known as the base for famous national brands such as Kobe Beef and Matsusaka Beef. Its tender meat and flavorful fat make it a true work of art.

2. The appeal of Ueda Livestock "Tajimagen"

Irori Dining Mikuni on the second floor of our hotel serves Tajima Gen, a special type of Tajima beef raised by Ueda Livestock Farm near Kinosaki. The fat has a low melting point, giving it a melt-in-your-mouth texture. The balance of lean meat and fat is exquisite, making it satisfying to eat, yet with a surprisingly refreshing aftertaste. It has been named "Taji Maguro" (Tuna), due to its refined and delicate flavor, almost like tuna.

3. Recommended dinner menu for autumn food

For a dinner that will add color to your autumn trip to Kinosaki, Irori Dining Mikuni offers a course that allows you to fully enjoy Tajima Gen.

•Steak: A classic style that allows you to directly enjoy the natural flavor of the meat.

- Irori-yaki: A luxurious dish that is slowly grilled over charcoal, ensuring that the meat's flavor is not lost and allowing you to enjoy its aroma and juiciness at the same time. The excitement of watching it being grilled right in front of you is also appealing.

•Shabu-shabu: Dip thinly sliced meat in hot water and enjoy the delicious flavor that fills your mouth.

• Sukiyaki: The refined fat mixed with the sweet and spicy sauce is perfect with rice and alcohol.
Tajimagen, enjoyed with seasonal autumn vegetables, is a luxurious dish truly worthy of the "autumn food season."

4. Summary
