There was a restaurant we passed last night that was absolutely buzzing and we through we'd have to give it a try tonight. We got there about 8:00 and it was heaving, so we decided to give it a miss. But after walking around for half an hour in the snow and nothing taking our fancy, we headed back and got a table.
So the restaurant was called Jonestu Horumon, any clues yet... no nether for us!
We sat down inside and got a couple of beers. The waitress brought a small BBQ to our table and we chose a few dishes via the pictures in the menu. It all looked like Pork and Beef, so we were happy enough. We also grabbed some salad, edimame and some corn on the cob. It was all really nice, and we had a right good time BBQ'ing the meats and chatting away.
Then, towards the end of the meal we notice a translated menu on the table. We took a look and the first thing that stood out was the word Hormone! And then the meats... Tongue, nose, vocal chord, heart, artery, throat!!! Yikes!
We now don't have a clue what we ordered and BBQ'ed. It was really tasty, but we question what part of the cow we enjoyed!!
So, for future reference, we now think that "Horumon" means "Organs" in Japanese, and not your standard sirloin steak...
