I was invited to a private gathering for regular customers and visited this restaurant. The location is right across the Asanogawa River from "Kataori." Upon entering, I was immediately impressed by Chef Kisanuki's remarkable memory. Even though we had only met a few years ago at Kataori, he remembered me well. Not only that, but he accurately recalled the number of times I had visited back then. This astonishing hospitality made me confident that I was in a great restaurant. The dishes are simply composed, utilizing carefully selected seasonal local ingredients. However, the flavors of the dashi and seasonings were distinctly expressed, which I personally found very appealing. The atmosphere inside the restaurant was consistently soft and incredibly comfortable. I truly understood why this place is so popular and difficult to reserve. From start to finish, it was a wonderful experience where I could purely enjoy the flavors of Hokuriku without any stress. Thank you for the great meal.
