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.

Our Autumn speciality is Wild Mushrooms. Mushroom lovers came from all over Japan in this season to taste rare and valuable mushrooms, and it is ending with those late season mushrooms.

All the mushroom juice oozes out in the soup and the condensed taste is exceptional.
