Q1: What is the origin of the name Kinnome?

Q7: How many types of sauce do you have?
We have 3 types of sauce in total. Our secret soy sauce-based sauce comes with every course. We also offer sesame sauce and ponzu vinegar sauce at an additional charge.

Q8: What are the recommended courses?
As lamb has a surprisingly lighter taste than beef, almost all of our guests order additional meat and vegetables. Therefore, if you want a hearty meal, and if you intend to order more than two drinks such as beer in addition to the all-you-can-eat course, we recommend the all-you-can-eat-and-drink course. If you intend to enjoy other à‐la‐carte dishes in addition to shabu-shabu, we recommend the single course.
Please refer to the course menu. -
