It got cold quick in December, winter menu is lively by fresh seasonal foods.
The tastes of winter such as "Gibier", a high fresh truffle have arrived one after another from France.
Fishes have been sent by air from my hometown, Miyazaki. Whenever I open the load, I am always impressed by many kinds of fishes caught in my home.
Especially, an about 60 cm (full length) sole was big and tasty same as which got used and familiar in France during training, so I was really surprised.
You can enjoy different taste in winter menu--Ebisu and Marunouchi.
And recently, new original tableware was also completed.
We are planning charity dinner of " Fighting Miyazaki" by 5 home chefs in Miyazaki Sheraton Hotel next January 18.
