Cuisine

Kaiseki / Traditional Japanese
Mikozen

Mikozen is the creation of our head chef Hiroshi Kamijo. It is innovative Japanese banquet cuisine that offers the best of the Suwa region, borrowing from elegant local traditions that showcase the four seasons. The mikozen menu makes liberal use of the bounty of Lake Suwako and Nagano prefecture, giving you a “taste” of the region.
Among the Mikozen courses, one that is particularly representative of the Suwa area is a dish known as Mikoshichin. It consists of quality ingredients from Lake Suwako and around Nagano prepared in a way that gives a real sense of the locale. It will surely be a wonderful part of your Suwa experience.
And then, conceived in accordance with the traditional twenty-four-part Japanese calendar, we offer the dish known as jisai-monogatari, or “Story of the Seasons’ Hues.”
Ingredients that change throughout the year give this dish a real feel of the seasons.
We are sure that once you try it, you will understand more fully the elegance of Japanese culture.

A manifestation of the Suwa people’s creativity, for our guests.
We are proud to offer the best in Suwa’s cuisine and hospitality.
