Went to a very nice sukiyaki restaurant in Susukino

Decided to have shabu-shabu

Salad and pickles for the meal

Beautiful and delicious miso

Matsusaka beef, the best

Ready to dig in

Just look at the meat before lightly boiled in the soup

Yummy - you don't even have to put into the sauce, the meat itself is so sweet

Next to our table 2 old men having sukiyaki, even though we're almost done with our meal, we just have to have them sukiyaki so

Another Matsusaka for the sukiyaki

Finished off with some kiwi sorbet
