【Hoshinoya Tokyo】Winter limited menu “Nippon Cuisine – Gastronomic Gathering

2024.02.11

Starting December 1, 2023, the dining room at Hoshinoya Tokyo, a Japanese-style inn in Otemachi, Tokyo, will offer a winter-only “Nippon Cuisine – Gastronomic Gathering” menu. Focusing on the culinary cultures of Miyagi, Mie, and Oita prefectures, the menu is prepared with ingredients that are most delicious in winter, such as rich and sweet lobsters, oysters with plump and creamy flesh, and radishes and spinach whose sweetness is enhanced by the cold weather.

Menu

The Beginning (Edo, Tokyo)

Soba and eel are used in this dish, which is prepared as French cuisine. The buckwheat galette, charbroiled eel, and smoked egg yolks fill the mouth with their respective savory aromas.

Ryukyu (Oita), Rattle Grate (Mie)

This dish is a combination of “ryukyu,” a local Oita dish born from the wisdom of fishermen as a preserved food, and “garagara oroshi,” a threefold vinegared dish made by roughly grating radish with an ogre grater, connected by the “sesame” used to season each.

Doroboyaki (Mie)

Doroboyaki” is a local dish of Mie that has two origins in its name. In accordance with those origins, we will taste the seasonal lobster in two different ways.

Ganzuki (Miyagi)

This dessert is a reworking of Miyagi’s local pastry “ganzuki” in the style of the French local pastry “belavecca”. The ganzuki is soaked in sake-soaked dried fruit, and then covered with a generous amount of sake to soak it all up. The dish is then topped with a warm chocolate sauce and served with cold ice cream modeled after Miyagi’s famous confectionery.

Iide Town, Yamagata Prefecture] “Submerged Forest of Lake Shirakawa,” a Mysterious Spring-Only Scene 

The mysterious scenery of Lake Shirakawa in the town of Iide in southern Yamagata Prefecture can be seen only during two months in spring. In spring, a large amount of melt water flows into Lake Shirakawa from the Iide mountain range, one of Japan’s 100 most famous mountains, where there is heavy snowfall. When the lake is full of water, it creates a fantastic sight of white willow trees as if they are growing out of the water.
