Taito City, Tokyo, Japan｜GUENPIN UENO

Fugu fin sake is a must try. Unbeatable. Additionally this time I tried the fugu liver paste, taste similar to goose liver, also not bad. Overall, a nice meal.

My husband and I have Dinner there last night and the overall experience was better than expected. We have chose the 4500yen set which included Fugu skin (starter), Fresh Fugu Sashimi, Fugu hotpot, rice and dessert. The waitress will prepare almost everything for you. After you have finished the Fugu and veggie in the hotpot, they will come with rice and cook it in the soup from the hotpot, add an egg then serve it to you. We were both walked out with a full stomach. We both don't speak Japanese. The elderly waitress is a lovely lady, she explains everything in English+Japanese to us and make sure we understand. And the cocktail with puffer fish jelly is quite good, my favourite is the plum one.

Brilliant restaurant! They got set courses which let you try different cooking methods of fugu and different parts of the fish. I recommend getting the BBQ set since it includes the fried fugu and the BBQ fugu. Highly recommended restaurant. Staff are also very attentive.
