I had on about 2 weeks ago, and it was'nt anything special, it was soft like a filet mignon, but it was really fatty!
I prefer filet mignon's, cost much less and taste much better.Comment

Kobe beef if prepaired properly is amazing. It has a huge fat content, and something I could not eat all the time. Normally when I order it I share it as an apetizer amoung a few people. Too rich to just eat by yourself.
It is a tasty treat from time to time however.Comment

Naah, but stuff like that you eat on a corporate expense account so no one really pays for overpriced restaurant food.Originally posted by MrPheer

Kobe, prepared properly, is nothing like the typical american grilled steak. It is best served very very rare. If cooked to what we'd typically consider medium, you've basically messed up a great piece of beef.
Also do not expect a big ole slab of steak, the portions are going to be small. Treat it as an ultra exotic appetizer.
If you pay less than $100 for it, you're probably not getting a true representation of what kobe beef is all about. Because of the price my advice is try steak tar-tar in a good high end steak house as an appetizer and if you enjoy that, then consider kobe if you ever have the opportunity.
If you're the type of person who wants your beef cooked well done with all of the flavor cooked out of it and finds rare meat disgusting, you're not going to like kobe. It is a delicacy that only a true carnivore will enjoy.Comment

I love kobe steak. But best to eat when you are 99% sure someone else is picking up the tab. Good Kobe at a nice restaurant will run you $15 an ounce.Sig too big

I haven't had on yet, but would love too. The airport to get to Kobe Japan is on a man made island. So I have always wanted to fly into that airport and have a kobe beek steak dinner.
No - sincerely - I love the idea of cows getting pampered, being feed good beer, etc. Nice for a change after this mad cow disease nightmare.Comment

I had a super kobe steak last Internext at the expense of Hooper and Wiseman - pretty much the best steak I have ever had, and to top it off, the company was the best.

"You can buy a $41 burger in New York these days, at the Old Homestead Steakhouse on Ninth Avenue. The owner, Greg Sherry, calls it the Kobe-burger, because though the cows come from Oregon, they are raised according to the methods of cattle farmers in Kobe, Japan. But who knows what those methods are? Not Greg. 'I think it's because they don't force feed them,' he says, vaguely. 'Basically, they raise the cows slower, more carefully. But listen, we're not selling real Kobe beef here. At best, it's an American approximation. The real deal, from Japan, you can't even import that stuff and it would cost hundreds of dollars if you could. It's just amazing. And there's this whole legend around it, about beer and music, you know, but I really couldn't say what's true and what's not...' "Comment

Very well marbled beef. I don't know if it's worth it, but it sure tasted good.Originally posted by bigdog

Thats what i was thinking, kobe beef isn't exported so much anymore, since they make enough off it from people buying it there...The stuff you find in america is "kobe" but its like....hmm, how to compare, ok, its like having a dominican cohiba. I'd love to have real kobe beef, no joke, its on my top 10 things to do in life. Since i have to go on vacation to get it, well, thats just a bonus.Originally posted by AdultNex
You can only get the kosher kobe beef in some parts of Asia.
I traveled there before, had kobe there (where they actually give the cows beer, massage them, etc.)-- And I thought I was in heaven.
