Why don’t you experience authentic soba noodle making with “Sobaneritama” delivered from Yamagata Prefecture?
I’m interested in soba-making, but isn’t it difficult? “Soba Ri” solves such problems.
Professionals perform difficult parts in making soba, such as “watering”, “kukuri”, and “kneading”, and then vacuum-packed and delivered in a “boiled” state.
The corona wreck has reduced my outings. I have more time to stay at home with my family …
However, I can’t find anything that seems to be this.
I want all the families who have spare time at home to enjoy it, which is increasing all over Japan!
We produced and developed with such a feeling.
We offer soba noodles that are particular about “Owari Soba” using the local soba flour “Mogamisase” in the soba restaurant Okuramura.
Please enjoy this year’s New Year’s Eve soba noodles with “Sobarenri”.

December sees the arrival of a number of Christmas breads. The Snowman with his cute smiling face is a sweet loaf with two different flavours: pudding cream and chocolate cream. It is a heartwarming treat with flavours that both children and adults can enjoy.
Also back this year is the popular Japanese Stollen, which was a big hit last year. This is a special cake that can only be tasted at Kimuraya, using Japanese-inspired ingredients such as persimmons, figs and koshi-an (sweet bean paste). Please take this opportunity to try Kimuraya’s limited edition Christmas bread.

The Hiroshima Museum of Art is hosting the exhibition “ZIPANGU: Contemporary Artists Who Defined the Heisei Era” (November 2, 2024 – December 22, 2024). This showcase brings together works by some of the most prominent figures in Japan’s contemporary art scene, including Yayoi Kusama, Takashi Murakami, Makoto Aida, Yoshitomo Nara, Chiharu Shiota, Izumi Kato, Akira Yamaguchi, and Miwa Komatsu. The exhibition has already garnered significant attention, exceeding 10,000 visitors.
HYAKKEI covered the dialogue between contemporary artist Takashi Murakami and Sueo Mizuma, the curator of this exhibition, held at the RIHGA Royal Hotel Hiroshima. We also conducted an exclusive interview with Mr. Mizuma.
The discussions centered on the aspirations behind the ZIPANGU exhibition and offered forward-looking insights, not only into Japan’s art world but also into the rediscovery of value within Japanese culture by its people.
