Located in Shanghai, the main restaurant opened in 2014 because Xu Zheng, a celebrity in the film and television industry, is one of the shareholders, and the store has not lost its popularity ever since. Opened in the same year, Hangzhou Shin Grill Chef is the first branch of Shin Grill Chef and one of the most famous star restaurants in Hangzhou.
The main dish of the real stove craftsman cuisine is Japanese-style robatayaki. Robatayaki is one of the traditional Japanese barbecue forms, where charcoal is placed vertically in the shape of a bonfire, and the whole skewer of fresh seafood is inserted around the charcoal fire, which is different from the grilling method placed on top of the charcoal, which not only prevents the fish from being heated too much, but also locks in the juice of the fish itself while baking, making the fish more delicious. This form of grilling does not require extra sauces, and salt is the only seasoning for Robatayaki. The English name of "SALT AND FIRE ROBATAYAKI" comprehensively describes the elements of robatayaki, salt and fire. However, the restaurant's interpretation of Robatayaki may not be satisfactory. The oven in the store is small, and on the side of the open kitchen, it is not enough to support the attention of diners, and it is not very eye-catching. There is no scene where guests enjoy sitting around the fireside and roasting while eating.
Putting aside the exaggerated publicity, the quality of the real stove craftsman is online. The grill is a traditional Japanese side stove and uses Bincho charcoal, which is considered one of the best charcoal species for barbecue, and its trees are fired at a high temperature of more than 1,200 degrees, and its charcoal content reaches 97%. The meat grilled over Bincho charcoal has a rich flavor, the surface of the meat is not too burnt, and the entrapment rate is almost zero. Charcoal-grilled tuna chin and charcoal-grilled alfonsino are the signature dishes here, and the quality of the ingredients is fresh and visible, and the meat is fresh and fragrant, so it is worth recommending.
Inevitably, there is a variance in the production of medium-grade Japanese dishes. Most of the dishes other than the usual dishes have been improved to include ingredients that rarely appear in the list of authentic Japanese dishes, such as foie gras, fat beef, and Boston lobster, and with it, a minefield of heavy oil and excessive greasy dishes. From time to time, the furnace burns are also out of condition. The overall stability of the production is weak.
Located on the first floor of Hangzhou Huanglong Hotel, the restaurant has a high-end environment and the service level in the store is also in line with the hotel's temperament. Adjacent to the restaurant is a small bar called "Sake Hidden", and the owner of the bar is also one of the shareholders of Shinko. However, recently, "Wine Hidden" has been closed to customers, and will be used for other purposes.
