Kiraku no Gyunabe
The aroma of miso sauce rises from the beef simmering in a shallow iron pot. Taking a single bite feels as if the Yokohama of the Civilization and Enlightenment era is being brought back to life on your tongue. Beef hot pot was born when Western meat-eating culture arrived with the opening of the Port of Yokohama in 1859. In the early Meiji era, beef hot pot restaurants—where beef was cut into chunks and simmered in miso—appeared one after another in Yokohama, gaining popularity as a fashionable specialty. Even today, long-established shops that carry on the tradition of gyunabe are scattered throughout Yokohama, such as Araiya and Otanawa no Noren. Sweet and savory miso sauce, tender beef, and plenty of green onions. It is a nutritious hot pot dish that the people of Yokohama have cherished for generations.
