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.

Iwataro Sakura, well known a weeping cherry in Gero. 

Gero is popular hot spring bath spot to the south of Takayama. It was summer like weather and the cherry trees in this area bloomed in full.

In Takayama, most cherry trees are yet to bloom. Flower buds of the weeping cherry outside of SAKANA are still tight, but will be full soon.
