About a 5-minute walk from the south exit of JR Ozone Station, I regularly visit this popular Japanese restaurant in Nagoya.Recently, due to fluctuations in my hormone balance, I've been feeling unwell every day, haha.On days when I have a course meal planned, I find myself worrying more about how I’ll feel after eating rather than looking forward to it.Today was no exception; it was one of those days.The dishes at "Kojitsu" were light and perfectly balanced in saltiness, making me feel no burden on my body. The choice and combination of ingredients were astonishingly high in potential, with a playful spirit that embodies the craftsmanship of Japanese cuisine. Thanks to that, I ended up having several servings!The restaurant is run by the Hori couple and three staff members, and the course price is incredibly reasonable. From sourcing ingredients to preparation and cleaning, the Hori couple surely works tirelessly from early morning until late at night for us guests. I can only take my hat off to them.I always feel rejuvenated here. Thank you so much for the delicious dishes and warm hospitality. As the humid days continue, please take care of yourselves.I can’t wait for my next visit. It was a great meal.《Today's Dishes and Drinks》●Omakase Course JPY 16,500 (tax included, service charge separate)◎Non-alcoholic drinks, 3 servings◆AppetizerTenkeiko mushrooms (Gifu)Grilled dried Spanish mackerelKintoki greens (Ishikawa) ohitashi◆SoupBlanched conger eel (Mikawa Bay)OkraPlum paste, yuzu◆SashimiRed sea bream (Chiba)Mud squid (Mie)Quickly blanched turban shell (Mikawa Bay)Ginger, wasabi◆Fried DishDeep-fried sweetfish (Tenryu River) that was alive until just beforeAonori seaweed (Kochi)Deep-fried burdock◆Grilled White EggplantWhite eggplant from Urban Farm ASAOKAGinger, soy sauce, bonito flakes◆Handmade 2:8 Soba NoodlesSoba flour from Nakagawa Village, NaganoJunsai (Aomori)Sudachi◆Grilled DishSpanish mackerel (Chiba) grilled with kinomeNew lotus root with zunda◆HiryōzuNew potato hiryōzuClam (Mikawa Bay) dashiSpinach◆Rice DishMiso soupPickles❶Corn rice (Kuwako Farm "Mirai")Rice is Yudai 21 (Tochigi)❷Topped with crispy baby sardines❸Stir-fried with Anjo beef and black pepper❹Organic Koshihikari rice from Toyama, Tokishirazu❺Organic Koshihikari rice from Toyama, with sansho mushroom◆Yogurt GelatoKawachi Bankan (Ehime)
