The location is pleasant, with the greenery of the Takano River swaying behind the windows. I wanted to open a restaurant that I could enjoy with my son while he is still young," says owner Haru Nakamoto. The main dish is dim sum such as yaki-sushi, which she prepared with the skill she honed as a chef over many years.

They try to use ingredients that are gentle to the body, such as purchasing from food stores that deal in naturally and organically grown vegetables.

Yaki-sai" (grilled vegetables) with Satoyama lotus root, glutinous pork scallop, organic black rice, shiitake mushroom, and chicken miso sansho (Japanese pepper), each 2 pieces for 500 yen. The chicken Miso Sansho, made with Tanba chicken and white miso paste, has a thin skin, while the shiitake mushrooms have a thick skin to match their robust flavor, and the black rice has a skin made from the ingredients themselves.

The yakisai is made with dried shiitake mushrooms and other dried ingredients to add flavor, and accented with herbs and spices. The restaurant pays close attention to details, such as changing the skin to match the ingredients.

Lamb celery dumpling 800 yen. The crispiness of celery matches the lamb. Homemade hot-and-sour soy sauce and fresh green pepper complement the chicken broth.

Nakamoto-san, who loves to drink, has also selected an appealing selection of spirits such as rum, gin, and shochu, as well as naturals wines.

On days when the day-care center is closed, his 6-year-old son serves as the manager of the restaurant. The restaurant's laid-back atmosphere is popular among customers with children, who can also enjoy a lunchtime drink. The shop is also scheduled to hold exhibitions and craftsmanship workshops in the future, so keep your eyes peeled for more information.
