in Nagano [Map]
A traditional Japanese restaurant frequented by the villa owners in Karuizawa, Japan’s premier summer resort. Lunchtime’s popular dish is charcoal-grilled fish set meals, while at night, you can enjoy authentic Japanese cuisine. During the New Year’s holiday, traditional Japanese New Year’s dishes, known as “osechi,” are available for a limited time.
These osechi dishes are a supreme delicacy that sells out quickly unless reserved two months in advance. If you ever have the opportunity to spend the year-end and New Year’s holidays in Japan, you should definitely reserve and get your hands on Ikeda’s traditional osechi dishes (they will deliver within Japan).
