What I want to deliver here in Hakuba is “a dish you can only taste today”.
To the ingredients gathered from the mountains and rivers in the morning, I gently layer the light and temperature felt that day,
reflecting the bounty and richness nurtured in Hakuba onto a single plate.
This dish comes to life through dialogue with staff who venture into the mountains and producers,
connecting the thoughts of those who love this land.
While imagining our guests’ smiles, we create cuisine as a team that transcends the hotel,
nurturing this “cycle of deliciousness” in this land.
