Located in Shima City, Mie PrefectureNEMU RESORTThe final night of our trip arrived. Since we had come all the way to Mie, we wanted to end our trip by enjoying Matsusaka beef, a brand of wagyu beef that the region is proud of! With that in mind, we decided to have a yakiniku party on the villa's terrace. We headed out to buy ingredients at a shop about 10 minutes away from the resort by car.Matsusaka Beef Nagataya」。
Nagataya is a popular shop and restaurant that sells Matsusaka beef carefully raised on its own farm, offering everything from meat sales to meals. Only A4 to A5 grade beef is served. Matsusaka beef, raised using fattening techniques cultivated over many years, is appealing for its beautiful marbling, melt-in-your-mouth texture, and elegant sweetness.
The display cases in the store are filled with a wide variety of cuts of meat, including kalbi (short ribs), sirloin, lean meat, and steak cuts. Customers can choose according to their needs and the number of people, and the staff will also provide careful advice based on your preferences, making it a popular choice not only for personal consumption but also as a souvenir or gift.
The cuts we chose this time were "Matsusaka Beef Premium Kalbi," which offers a rich umami flavor and the sweetness of the fat, and "Beef Thigh," which allows you to savor the inherent deliciousness of lean meat.
In addition to the meat, the nearby supermarket "MaxValu Ugata StoreWe also stopped by [a store/shop name] and bought some seasonal corn and colorful grilled vegetables, so we're all set for our barbecue party.
