Hotel Mori no Kaze Oushuku's creative kaiseki cuisine reflects the four seasons of Iwate
Colorfully expressing the four seasons of Iwate
Hotel Mori no Kaze Kaze Oushuku is located in Oushuku , Iwate Prefecture, overlooking the magnificent Mount Iwate. Along with the breathtaking scenery and soothing hot springs, the hotel's greatest draw is its cuisine. The dishes, such as the "creative kaiseki" and "robata kaiseki" that make use of seasonal ingredients, reflect the "four seasons of Iwate" on each plate and are visually elegant.
The autumn menu will begin serving from September. The "Creative Kaiseki" course will feature exquisite dishes made with local ingredients, such as "Five Taste Dishes" (sour, salty, sweet, bitter, and umami), such as mushroom marinade with green plum jelly, grilled Akebia stuffed with meat, and steamed golden eye snapper, as well as Okinawan beef shabu-shabu.
The popular "Robata Kaiseki" meal, served around the hearth
The restaurant, modeled after a traditional Nanbu curved house, is also popular for its robata kaiseki charcoal grilled dishes, which the inn highly recommends as a way to "enjoy a warm moment around the hearth with the seasonal flavors of Iwate." The head chef also confidently urges guests to "enjoy the excitement from the appetizers to the final dessert." Why not soothe your body and soul with exquisite dishes in an extraordinary atmosphere?
