Beyond reservations: A culinary adventure

This is where our first adventure into the heart of Japanese food begins. Embrace new flavors and dare to try something different, like local specialties such as mentaiko or fresh matcha mochi with strawberry, highly recommend. The best culinary experiences often happen without reservations, as we stumble upon new spots filled with irresistible aromas and captivating food preparation.
Craftsmanship and pride
The essence of Japanese cuisine is found in the craftsmanship, skill, and pride taken in the ingredients. These qualities come together to create fresh, healthy dishes that often surprise and delight. Some of the best meals are prepared fresh and enjoyed without reservations at street markets or even airports. The Christmas mochi with matcha, azuki beans, and fresh strawberries was an especially refreshing treat.
A sensory exploration
We find Japanese bites special because we discover new flavors by wandering and following our senses. We admire the artistry of food preparation, the captivating aromas, and the joy of delighting people with seasonal dishes—even the Costco food court serves oden, a hearty root vegetable soup.
