I think i am in love, I went to the Japan Premium Beef Butcher Shop today . The shop is decidedly minimal, with stark white walls and a glowing glass case full of ruby-red beef, neatly and tidily presented. Its butchers, Eiichi Yamamoto and Daigo Irifune, are smartly attired in button-down shirts, ties and spotless, pressed aprons. And they couldn’t be more excited to chat with customers about wagyu beef–the only variety they sell.
