Shiso, Hyogo, Japan｜Oimatsu Dining

We had lunch and a drink competition. Kijoshu is very delicious. This is just my personal impression, but it had a sweet and deep flavor, like plum wine with only the plum flavor removed, and was perfect as an aperitif. The three dishes recommended by the chef were so flavorful that I was glad I ordered them. Also, the lunch was very delicious, and the staff recommended ``Sakagura Moromi,'' which goes well with everything.It was so delicious that I ended up purchasing three types of moromi: normal, Japanese pepper, and yuzu. It goes well with rice, and it's really delicious and goes well with vegetables, meat, fish, etc.

It is a shop where you can eat delicious fermented lunch. It feels like a sales office in front of the building and a restaurant in the back. Please note that you have to take off your shoes to enter the restaurant. Reservations are required as seats are limited. (If the timing is right, there may be vacancies on the day.) I was asked about my order when I made the reservation. The lunch menu at that time was announced on Instagram, so I looked at it and told you. At the sales office, you can buy sweet sake and sake lees as well as sake!

I used it for lunch when I came to see the autumn leaves at Mogamiyama Park. There are two types of lunch menus, 1500 yen and 2200 yen, which use plenty of healthy fermented ingredients. This time, I tried the latter, but I was really impressed by the careful seasoning of each dish...! You can enjoy local ingredients with soy sauce mixed with koji and mayonnaise. I couldn't drink sake this time, but the sake lees sweet sake I drank as an aperitif was mild and delicious, unlike the commercially available one. The sake lees yoghurt after the meal is a bit astringent, but on the contrary, the sweetness of the local apple jam stands out. The price is high, but the quality is worth it! Everything was delicious! 🙌 There was an inn with a nice atmosphere across the street, so next time I want to stay and enjoy sake. 🍶 Even on weekdays, I waited for an hour if I went without a reservation, so it may be necessary to make a reservation regardless of the day!
