Kobe, Hyogo, Japan｜Taiko

The proprietress and everyone else are warm and welcoming, and the three types of motsunabe, as well as the other dishes, are delicious. Very comfortable.

Approximately 2 minutes walk from Itajuku Station on the Kobe Municipal Subway Nishi-Kami Yamanote Line and Itajuku Station on the Sanyo Main Line. There are several coin parking lots within a 5-minute walk, so access by car is also convenient. Inside the store, there are table seats and tatami rooms (horigotatsu seats) on the first floor, and private tatami rooms (horizontal tatami seats) on the second floor, and I think it's best to make a reservation in advance and use the private tatami rooms on the second floor. In addition to motsu nabe, they have a wide variety of a la carte dishes, and if you're going to a bad izakaya restaurant, I recommend Taiko, where you can also get motsu nabe. It goes without saying that motsu nabe is delicious, but the vinegar motsu, kappa cartilage, and grilled wagyu beef were the best!

Not only the motsunabe, but also the other dishes are delicious. Sakura yukhoe, broiled wagyu beef, vinegar offal, etc. are recommended. By the way, there are three types of motsunabe: salt, soy sauce, and miso.
