Japanese food is recognized as one of the best food in the world since Japanese traditional food “Washoku” has got registered in UNESCO’s Intangible Cultural Heritage list. Especially, Japanese beef “Wagyu” is getting a lot of attentions on global basis. Some gourmets come to Japan just for authentic wagyu beef. We are here to learn what’s different between various wagyu beefs.
Where Can You Eat Wagyu?
Wagyu is called different names depending on where cattle grow. For instance, the most famous one in Hyogo Prefecture is named Kobe Beef. You may have heard that name. Matsuzaka Beef is housed in Mie Prefecture and Omi Beef is raised in Shiga Prefecture. These three brands are also known as The Three Major Wagyu Beef. Nevertheless, it is a hasty conclusion that all you need to do for the most delicious beef is go to Kinki Region including the above prefectures. Because their stud bulls are originally from Miyazaki Prefecture located in Kyusyu Region. In fact, Kyushu region is actually the place where best Wagyu is from.
