“I love wagyu, but heavy fat is a little too much for me.” For exactly those diners, we’d like to introduce the choice of Kobe beef lean steak—the meat’s natural umami, enjoyed with a light finish.
Lean Meat: A Refined Option
Lean is a general term for cuts with little fat—cuts where you savor the umami of the meat itself, without relying on marbling. Kobe beef lean is delicate and tender even as a lean cut. It suits those who find fat too heavy, and those who want to eat heartily.
The Appeal of Kobe Beef Lean Steak
Because the fat is modest, the aftertaste is light and you can enjoy it to the last bite without tiring of it. It’s also a good fit for the health-conscious and for those who want plenty of protein. Within Kobe beef, it’s an accessible price range as well.
Guide to Price & Gram Weight
Our Kobe beef lean steak set starts from 100g at 7,040 yen (tax incl.), with 130g and 160g also available. At the same gram weight, it feels easier to eat than sirloin. The differences between cuts are in our column on how to choose by cut, and the full menu is on the Food Menu.
