Sushi, but not the usual kind—it's fermented cuisine.An auberge by Lake Yogo.Incredibly spacious private rooms, with views from every room.- Appetizers: Iberian ham and sesame-coated venison, with impressive asparagus. Ah, I'm so glad I made the trip! ✨- Biwa Trout Sashimi with Nasturtium: Such beautiful colors! Honestly, I wondered if this amount was enough for one person, but I finished it all.- Grilled Tsukinowaguma (Asian black bear) meat: Wow! This is my first time trying bear meat this year, and it's so fancy! Absolutely delicious! A dish that makes you ponder whether to pair it with wine.- Cold Eggplant and Bear Meat: This is amazing too! Isn’t this the cutting edge of Japanese venison cuisine?- Eel Fermented Sandwich: I wasn't sure about the dryness, but it pairs perfectly as a side dish.- White Grilled Fish: This one didn’t quite hit the mark, but on the flip side, it’s impressive that they’ve positioned it this way!Well, anyway, the drinks keep flowing!Shiga's famous sake, Nanahon Yari, captivated me on a travel show.- Mackerel Narezushi with Milk Fermentation: Here comes the strong fermentation! Milk fermentation? That’s not something you hear every day—it's like cheese!The staff are well-versed in conversation. ☺️- Grilled Sweetfish with Onion Paste and Soft-Shelled Turtle Broth: This is incredibly delicious!- Funazushi: Here it comes—served in a jelly-like form!Wow, this is definitely an arrangement that even those who dislike it can enjoy.- Finale: Masuko Sushi with Sudachi Somen: Masuko tends to escape from the bite! So good! The somen might have been a bit off balance, though.- Rice Fermented Ice Cream, Baked Sweets, and Sesame Chips: Even the desserts are fermented!Wow, the subtlety of fermented cuisine. While preserving local ingredients and culture, the dishes also evolve.I did feel like I wanted some hot grilled meat or piping hot dishes, though.I can see why @arata.japanese__cuisine is connected with this place!I wanted to meet the chef, butIn any case, this is a place worth visiting—no doubt about it!
