Specialty: Shokado Bento Lunchboxes

 

 

 

 

Shokado bento is a unique bento style that evokes Japanese tradition, with dishes carefully arranged in individual small bowls and combined like a single work of art.

 

 

 

 

The shokado bento lunches at this eatery are made mainly from fresh local seasonal ingredients, attracting many people with their vivid colors and deep flavors.

 

 

 

 

In spring, wild vegetables that remind us of the fresh greenery of the mountains, and in early summer, seafood that allows us to experience the bounty of the sea are the mainstays of this area.

 

 

 

 

And the ¥2,090 (tax included) yen price tag is very reasonable considering its high quality and balance.

 

 

 

 

 

I took the photo after taking a bite, so I apologize for the misshapen shape.

 

 

It looked delicious and I ended up eating it first.

 

 

 

 

 

In addition, there is a clear spring flowing near Kakitagawa Park, and the specialty tofu made with this spring water is characterized by its smooth texture and deep flavor.

 

 

 

 

 

 

*This is not a welcome drink, but a soy milk drink.

 

 

 

It has a very refreshing taste and is easy to drink, and even those who do not like soy milk can enjoy it.

 

 

 

 

 

 

This tofu is rich in minerals from the spring water, and its unique sweetness and flavor can be enjoyed.

 

 

 

To taste the tofu unique to this region with a Shokado bento is truly a moment of bliss.

Lunch experience with a view of the garden

 

 

 

The special charm of the Dining Room Kaesemi Honkan lies in the dining experience with a view of the Japanese garden in which it is located.

 

 

 

This eatery is located in the heart of Kakita River Park, with a view of the four seasons through the windows.

 

 

 

 

Colorful carp swim gracefully in the garden pond, delighting the eyes of visitors.

 

 

 

The pond is surrounded by lush green trees and seasonal flowers, among which cherry blossoms in spring and autumn leaves in fall radiate their own beauty.

 

 

 

And the experience of eating a traditional Shokado bento in the tranquility and serenity of the garden is truly a moment of bliss.

 

 

 

In the soothing, soundless silence, each dish is a bounty of the season, and its flavors can be savored carefully.
