Happy Birthday to Me
Renie was happy he had a whole expensive steak to himself. Spoiled child
Kathrina and I enjoying some Kobe Beef soup.
We are successfully back from our Thanksgiving road trip to Osaka, Kyoto, and Kobe. We were accompanied by the Carrasco family. The drive was beautiful with all the maple leaves looking so colorful. We rented a van so we drove in comfort and had free tolls to and from our destination. We also had an English speaking GPS system and took full advantage of driving everywhere. I have to give Rene and Ernie an A+ on driving. Some of the back streets in Kyoto were quite narrow. For my birthday dinner, we were able to enjoy dinning on the best steaks in the world. These are the Kobe steaks. Kobe steaks in the states are easily well over $100.00-$300.00. This steak is a legendary delicacy of Japan. It is so well marbled that they go right off the charts for Prime grading in any other country. It takes a special cook to perfect this steak. We were able to enjoy a steak set each for around $54.00 plus dollars. They were well worth the price and we also enjoyed watching the chefs prepare them with such skill. Now we can say we ate a steak in Kobe, home of the best steaks in the world.
