Located just a 10-15 minute drive from Komatsu Station, SHOKUDO YArn is an innovative dining establishment.Not only is the food exceptional, but the presentation and serving style also contribute to its high ratings. It has been recognized as one of the top 100 innovative restaurants for creative cuisine in 2025, and has received Tabelog Silver and Bronze awards from 2017 to 2026.While photography of all dishes is prohibited, there is a fun system where you can draw a gacha and take photos of the number of winning items you get. However, posting the menu on social media is not allowed.Here are the dishes we enjoyed:-----------------------------◾️ Tea We started the course with a unique dish from Ishikawa: ginger ale made with tea instead of ginger. This drink combines the aroma of tea with the refreshing fizz of carbonation, creating a taste unlike anything I've had before.◾️ Butterbur Sprouts The tempura of butterbur sprouts has a delightful bitterness. The crunchy texture and the unique flavor of the mountain vegetables are simply irresistible.◾️ Sardines Served in an aluminum can, this dish of marinated sardines brings back memories of school lunches. The umami of the sardines combined with a hint of acidity is very appetizing.◾️ Bamboo Shoots This dish features bamboo shoots and mountain vegetables, enhanced with olive oil and rosemary, capturing the essence of spring. The refreshing aroma of rosemary is particularly memorable.◾️ Firefly Squid A creative dish where the miso of firefly squid is frozen like chocolate and then melted into a hot risotto. The warm and cold textures blend together in your mouth, allowing the flavor of the firefly squid to unfold beautifully.◾️ Spinach Named "Monkuro" (a play on Mont Blanc), this dish is an interesting creation. "Blanc" means white in French, and this dish resembles a black Mont Blanc.◾️ Sweetfish This seasonal dish features sweetfish marinated in nanban sauce, served in a dish designed to resemble a pond. The bitterness of the sweetfish harmonizes perfectly with the sweet and sour nanban sauce, and the crunchy texture is delightful.◾️ Tuna Thickly sliced tuna is prepared as a slightly rare cutlet. The crispy coating and the moist umami of the red meat create a wonderful balance, making it very satisfying to eat.◾️ Wild Boar The main dish features crispy, aromatic wild boar meat grilled to perfection, served with mountain vegetables. The robust flavor of the wild boar and the refreshing aroma of the mountain vegetables create an exquisite balance.◾️ Dessert The dessert resembles a shortcake served in a shoe-shaped dish. It has a fluffy texture and rich cream flavor, yet it remains light and not overly sweet, which is its charm.-----------------------------The owner and staff provide attentive service, and the spacious, sophisticated atmosphere makes for a wonderfully comfortable dining experience. I highly recommend visiting!Thank you for the meal!*Instagram Gourmet Account https://www.instagram.com/shunsuke.naka/ (Over 10,000 followers!)*Gourmet Blog https://syn-gourmet.com*Comprehensive Links https://lit.link/syngourmet
