The Luigans Spa & Resort Steakhouse Medium Rare

I moved to the steakhouse, where the seating is at a counter surrounded by a teppan grill. The smiling chef who initially guided me was in charge of the right table, while a chef resembling a member of Arashi welcomed me at the left table. The semi-circular teppan grill is divided into 90-degree sections without partitions, creating a shared yet separate dining experience.

At my side, there were two couples and myself, while the smiling chef's table included a family of four with two children and two elegant middle-aged women. The course consisted of nine dishes served over 90 minutes, with most ingredients sourced from Kyushu.

The meat included 50 grams each of Miyazaki beef and Hakata beef, along with portions for steak burgers and sushi. Watching the ingredients sizzle on the teppan and then melt in my mouth was a fleeting yet delightful experience. Conversations with the chef added to the enjoyment throughout the meal.

I learned that the chef had worked at the With the Style location for a long time before transferring to the Luigans location this May. I chose the restaurant's namesake medium rare for the cooking style, but considering some parts had tendons, medium might have been a better choice.

Although the smiling chef wasn't in charge of my table, sitting near the boundary allowed for several exchanges of smiles without conversation. The next day, during checkout, we happened to cross paths and exchanged a friendly wave 👋. Thank you.
