BRIAN'S 100 Best '14

100 BEST ’14: MINO (FIRST STOMACH) at TAKASHI

SADLY, TAKASHI IS NOW CLOSED.

Mino (First Stomach) at TAKASHI

Eating any number of the cow stomachs sounds a bit terrifying for most Americans, but the impeccable Takashi makes it accesible for adventurous eaters. The first stomach is marinated in their special sauce and then grilled tableside so that it has a crisp, chewy texture with lots of meaty and sweet flavors. It’s worth the fear factor. Price: $14
