Beat the Summer Heat! Meat Dishes Packed with Energy
Especially during the summer heat, when your stamina tends to drop, it’s important to make sure you’re getting plenty of high-quality protein. We’ve prepared “Yamagata Pork Belly Skewers with Salted Wasabi”—the perfect dish for this season. The sweetness of the Yamagata pork fat blends exquisitely with the sharp, refreshing kick of salted wasabi, creating a dish that’s sure to whet your appetite. For those seeking an even bolder flavor, we also offer “Yamagata Pork Belly Skewers with Kimchi Sauce.” The spiciness of the kimchi blends with the rich umami of the pork, making it perfect for boosting your energy. Furthermore, for nights when you want to really indulge in meat, our “Sizzling Hot Iron Plate Spicy Chicken” is the perfect choice. Since it’s served on a sizzling hot iron plate, you can enjoy it piping hot right until the very last bite. These meat dishes pair perfectly with cold drinks and are sure to liven up your summer night gatherings even more.
Seasonal Vegetables and Small Plates That Bring a Sense of Coolness
On hot days, why not cool down from the inside out with a refreshing vegetable dish? “Water Eggplant Sashimi,” which is in season right now, is appealing for its juiciness and unique texture. This simple dish, which highlights the natural flavors of the ingredients, also makes an excellent palate cleanser. We also offer “Cabbage with Sesame Oil” and “Broccoli Ohitashi” as easy-to-eat small plates. The dish where the nutty aroma of sesame oil brings out the sweetness of the cabbage, and the broccoli infused with the gentle flavor of dashi, are perfect for enjoying between drinks. Furthermore, if you’re looking for a little spicy kick, “Nagaimo Kimchi” is a great choice. The crisp texture of the nagaimo combined with the spiciness of the kimchi is sure to blow away the fatigue of summer. These dishes, made with an abundance of seasonal vegetables, are sure to please even the most health-conscious diners.
A Special Evening in a Private Setting
Our greatest strength is the private atmosphere provided by our all-private-room seating. Despite our location in Shin-Yokohama, we’ve created an environment where you can forget the hustle and bustle of the surrounding area and enjoy a peaceful, relaxing time. We welcome small groups, of course, but we also feature private rooms with sunken hearths that can accommodate up to 100 guests, making them ideal for a wide range of occasions—from business entertaining to special family dinners and gatherings with friends. In our private rooms, you can enjoy lively conversation to your heart’s content without worrying about prying eyes. We also offer arrangements for whole cakes with personalized messages and bouquets for special occasions, helping you create a memorable evening with your loved ones. Please enjoy a memorable experience surrounded by seasonal delicacies in a space featuring subdued lighting and traditional Japanese charm.
