With the intense heat continuing day after day, we’ve reached that time of year when we can truly feel the arrival of summer. As the scorching daytime sun gives way to nights that gradually grow cooler, it’s the perfect time to enjoy pairings of chilled sake and seasonal ingredients. Today, we’d like to suggest some combinations to help you make the most of your summer evenings in our private dining rooms, which are a source of pride for our restaurant.
The Perfect Pairing of "White Motsu Nabe" and Chilled Sake for Summer
It’s precisely because it’s hot outside that gathering around a piping-hot hot pot is such a sophisticated way to enjoy the season. Our “White Offal Hot Pot Course” features offal that’s been carefully prepared, allowing its rich umami to infuse the broth and create a deep, rich flavor. This rich taste pairs perfectly with chilled sake that has a clean, refreshing finish. The crisp sake pleasantly washes away the sweetness of the fat as it spreads across your palate, making each subsequent bite taste even more vivid. Spending time sipping sake slowly in the serene atmosphere of a private room, while feeling the steam rising from the hot pot, is the very definition of a summer night’s luxury. We invite you to fully savor the cooking techniques that bring out the maximum umami of the ingredients, along with the perfectly paired sake selections.
Drinks That Pair Perfectly with the Spicy Flavors of “Taiwanese Motsunabe”
The “Taiwanese Offal Hot Pot Course” is gaining attention as a way to boost stamina during the summer. Its spicy kick stimulates the appetite, and combined with the springy texture of the offal, it’s so irresistible you won’t be able to put your chopsticks down. This stimulating flavor pairs perfectly with drinks that highlight the refreshing fizz of carbonation. The effervescent sensation as it passes through your throat cleanses the lingering spiciness, allowing you to enjoy your meal to the very end without ever getting bored. It’s the perfect combination for creating a lively dining atmosphere that sparks lively conversation with friends and colleagues. We also offer a premium all-you-can-drink plan featuring approximately 100 varieties, so please find your favorite drink and explore your own unique pairings.
