Set inside JR Tokyo Station, dancyu Shokudo is a restaurant built around the idea of a place "you'll want to visit every day," serving set meals at lunch and drinks with small plates in the evening, with each simple, satisfying dish presented alongside its own story.
Kurose Buri, Enjoyed a Few Different Ways This Summer
Nissui's ikijime Kurose buri is a fully farmed yellowtail with rich flavor year-round, prized for delivering peak-season richness in any season.
Continuing from last year, dancyu Shokudo has again put together a summer Kurose buri feature, the Summer Kurose Buri Katsu Set Meal, for those wanting to enjoy the buri's elegant richness even in the summer months.
The set meal includes three kinds of fried Kurose buri — buri katsu, buri ume-shiso fry, and buri croquette — along with a side of Kurose buri sashimi, letting diners compare how the fish's flavor changes with the cut and cooking method within a single meal.
Buri Katsu
Made from the well-balanced, fatty back cut.
A light, crisp coating wraps a fluffy, tender center, with fine marbling that melts smoothly on the tongue to bring out the buri's elegant richness.
Buri Ume-Shiso Fry
The fattier belly cut is paired with pickled plum and shiso leaf.
The refreshing plum and shiso flavors bring out the richness of the buri's fat, for a taste that's easy to enjoy even in summer. It also pairs well with grated daikon radish.
Buri Croquette
Meat from around the head and bones is roasted in the oven until fragrant, then carefully picked apart and used in the croquette.
House-made béchamel sauce is combined with mashed potato to bring out the richness of the Kurose buri in a mellow croquette, making good use of every part of the fish and each cut's own character.
A Free Bowl of Buri Sashimi With Any Other Order
During the same period, customers who order anything other than the Summer Kurose Buri Katsu Set Meal can also try a small bowl of Kurose buri sashimi, offered free to introduce the fish's flavor to more guests.
It's limited to the first 70 people each day.
Note that the offer ends for the day once the daily supply runs out, and the terms or contents of the offer may change.
