Yakiniku at Gyu-Kaku Japanese BBQ

Another special occasion for DD#1 took us to Gyu-Kaku Japanese BBQ in Richmond Hill. A self-declared meat lover (like mother like daughter 😊 ), DD#1’s request for her treat was “anywhere with a lot of meat.” Gyu-Kaku fit the bill. While we didn’t avail of all-you-can-eat, we ordered the Meat Variety course. This course included salad, miso soup, rich, Gyu sushi (beef nigiri), garlic mushroom, cheese corn butter and fried calamari, apart from the meats, of course. We also ordered an additional Harami in secret pot which was ½ lb of 21-day aged skirt steak in a special mild miso marinade.

The BBQ items included Umakara Ribeye, Yaki-Shabu beef, Toro beef, Chicken basil (with cheese), pork belly, Harami (skirt steak) and Kalbi chuck rib. The meats were marinated in miso or sweet soy tare. There were also various dipping sauces. We grilled the meats over the mesh-type hot plate, which meant the meat was not simmering in oil. They served good quality beef and we thoroughly enjoyed our meal. My favourite was the Harami, with its beautifully-marbled meat. The miso marinade was just delicious.

The course meal included S’mores for dessert. And no matter how full we all were, we cannot turn down S’mores! We haven’t roasted marshmallows over a cooktop before (usually, we roast over campfire), but it was a fun experience and yummy, as expected. Great meal and great service! We will be back!
