At Hoshino Resorts, in 2020, we launched the “Mottainai Project,” an initiative that contributes to the recovery of food loss problems in various regions that were born in the Corona disaster. From July 1st to August 31st, 2009, we will offer Hoshinoya Tokyo’s original “Kuzukiri Ramune” that supports the long-established Ramune shop in Tokyo, which has been in business for 80 years.
It is a dish of ramune poured into Kuzukiri with ramune flavor. You can enjoy the cool feeling with the clear and vivid color of Kuzukiri. We will provide Kuzukiri Ramune at the “Tokyo Summer Night Feast”, an event that conveys the culture of Edo to the present day. We also offer a limited number of bottles of ramune with a limited label for “Tokyo Summer Night Feast”.
At the factory, we have been working hard every day to protect the culture of Ramune, which is a Japanese summer tradition. I am very grateful that Ramune, which cannot be sold as usual due to the cancellation of the Corona Festival and the fireworks display, will be used at Japanese inns. Just as I drank Tokyo Ramune when I was a child and was impressed by its taste and refreshing feeling, I hope that many people will experience the wonderfulness of Japanese Ramune.

At the same time, we are holding a “Tokyo Summer Night Feast” that conveys the culture of Edo to the present day.
It is an event that conveys the culture of Edo to the present day. You can enjoy the play and atmosphere that are familiar to you at fairs. It is said that samurai residences lined up around Otemachi, where Hoshinoya Tokyo is located, and that unique traditional performing arts and entertainment developed. We will convey to the modern people the splendor and fun of the culture rooted in this area.

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).

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.
