Begin your evening adventure by visiting Aji Tasuke Honten for gyutan dinner. There are essentially as many places in Sendai serving beef younger as there are people who it it, so it can be difficult deciding where to start, but Aji Tasuke is always a fail safe option. All about quality over flamboyance, there isn't a lot of choice when it comes to beef tongue cooking options, however it's best to keep it simple just as the chef recommends. Simply seasoned with salt and cooked over a hot flame the dish is straightforward, simple and delicious. This unique beer dish came to be during the post war japan era when a yakiniku owner realized he could make use of the tongue and tails that were being left over by US occupation forces and before too long it became a sendai menu staple.
