Sirloin from Miyazaki

Ginza Hirayama‘s 33 year old chef-owner Hirayama-san used to work at the famous “introduction only” steakhouse Kawamura. The beef he used that day was tenderloin from Miyazaki, but you could also have sirloin if you are really into super marbled beef. The major difference between Kawamura and Hirayama is that it is possible to book the latter. Has the student surpassed the master? Probably no, but he must have been very good at his homework.
