01 / ABOUT THE PLACE
If you’re in the mood for both sashimi and tempura at lunchtime, Sanbonmatsu’s Sashimi and Tempura Set is a good option. It serves half portions of each, and some diners say they return for the chance to enjoy both in one meal. Visitors have remarked on the range of sashimi and the thickness and texture of the slices; others mention that the tempura arrived piping hot and freshly fried. For a meal centred on sashimi, there is a Sashimi Set, while the Tempura Set offers a fuller selection of fried dishes. One diner who ordered it noted that both dipping sauce and salt were provided, and enjoyed prawns, vegetables and scallop adductor muscle. The menu lists each of these sets at 1,000 yen. They make it easy to choose according to your preference during a weekday lunch.
One of the evening specialities is horse sashimi from Kumamoto Prefecture. The three-cut platter includes marbled meat, lean meat and kone (the mane); the five-cut version adds futaego and liver, offering a chance to compare different cuts. Some diners say they order the three-cut platter every time. It can make a distinctive opening to dinner, with the different characteristics of horse meat at its centre. For something hot, add the small horse-meat harihari hot pot. The restaurant says its broth is made with freshly shaved bonito and top-quality kelp; rice porridge or udon can be added to finish the meal for an extra charge. A course pairing horse sashimi with hot pot is also listed, making it an option for an evening when you would like to settle in for several dishes.
Those looking to focus on small plates and drinks can choose from snacks such as plum jellyfish and grilled stingray fin, as well as a small three-cut sashimi platter. Japanese sake and shochu are also available. One visitor paired plum jellyfish, the three-cut horse sashimi platter and prawn arare-age with sake and shochu. Whether you’re building an evening around horse meat or combining fish and tempura at lunch, Sanbonmatsu offers choices ranging from individual dishes to set courses.
