takayama SAKANA

Fine dining of selected seasonal ingredients and the highest quality of Hida beef can be enjoyed in a peaceful location.

Sakana Restaurant in Takayama serves seasonal cuisine. Most of dishes are made from local products such as highly acclaimed Hida-Beef, also we go into the mountains by ourselves to get wild ingredients. In this diary, I'd like to make some notes of seasonal food and scenes of Hida area.

From this January, I started to working for SAKANA restaurant. I'd like to share some fun experience here, about food, nature of the Hida and events of SAKANA. Hope you feel the atmosphere and how I enjoy being here.

Let me introduce SAKANA restaurant first.

The restaurant is located on a hill which overlooks the North Apls and city lights of Takayama. It takes 10 minuts taxi ride from Takayama Stn. Hotel Associa Takayama Resort is just across the road.
