groin groin

Located a 3-minute walk from Tsukuba Express Asakusa Station, situated right along the Asakusa Hisago-dori Shopping Street in Asakusa 2-chome, groin groin is a bistro specializing in pork cuisine. The restaurant exclusively handles carefully selected, rare domestic pork breeds, including the highly restricted "Nakijin Agu" from Okinawa and the unique "Kokuhou Kurobuta" (National Treasure Black Pork).

To maximize the inherent qualities of the pork ingredients, the chef varies the cooking methodology precisely depending on the specific cut of meat. The signature Roast Pork features whole cuts of inner and outer thigh slow-cooked via sous-vide at 57°C for 10 hours. It is characterized by its moist, rose-colored cross-section and abundant savory juices. The menu also offers an array of meticulous creations, ranging from house-made pâté to specialty chashu braised with aged balsamic vinegar, designed to be enjoyed alongside natural wines through curated course meals or à la carte options.

The interior is a compact dining layout featuring only 7 counter seats facing the kitchen area. Operating with a lively yet relaxed energy, this establishment provides an environment where guests can experience authentic multi-course pork dining paired with a selection of drinks without strict formality.
