Three Stars: Exceptional cuisine
Seasonal crops are lined up on the zataku. Yamato vegetables and vegetables from various countries spruce up the plates. The Miuras visit farms and grow the seeds they collect. The harvested vegetables are used in local dishes they learned how to prepare in each area. You’ll enjoy items grilled on a ceramic plate in spring and summer and soy milk nabe in autumn and winter together with colourful takiawase. The menu makes you feel like you’re strolling around a market garden.

"We protect traditional Nara vegetables to ensure their future. Growing native crops allows us to pass on the local culture and history. We also engage in environmental conservation by way of cyclical farming without the use of agricultural chemicals. The goats we raise eat our vegetable scraps, which are also composted."
