In June 2026, I traveled to Iwate and Akita using the Adult Holiday Club Pass.I stayed at a hotel in front of Omagari Station to enjoy dinner here.Since dinner started at 6:30 PM, I thought it would be best to arrive early, so I went to the taxi stand at Omagari Station at 6:00 PM and was able to get a taxi right away.It took less than 10 minutes and cost JPY 1,700.I arrived a bit early and had to wait to enter the restaurant, so I could have actually arrived 10 minutes later.Dinner was JPY 12,000 (excluding tax and service charge).When I asked the lady about the wine pairing, she mentioned it was a very reasonable price of JPY 6,500.Of course, I decided to go for it.The chef's dedication was evident in both the ingredients and the tableware, and the lady explained everything so clearly that the three hours flew by.Every dish was truly delicious, but I was particularly impressed by the rock oysters and sea pineapple. Despite being ingredients I usually find challenging, I enjoyed both immensely.I’m really glad I visited Omagari!I would love to come back in a different season.It was a great meal.CenaB (Course B) JPY 14,520 (including tax and service charge)1.
