Oshoshina Gozen “Kenshin Course”

おしょうしな御膳 謙信コース

Bringing the most familiar and dearest Yonezawa to you

“Oshoshina” means “Thank you” in the Yonezawa dialect. “Oshoshina” for coming to Yonezawa. “Oshoshina” for enjoying Yonezawa. With this thankfulness in mind, we have composed the course so that you can enjoy Yonezawa with a familiarity with the word, as well as with the ingredients. We hope that you will also understand the history, traditional vegetables, preserved foods and “Katemono.” You can feel the great climate and skill of the producers in the fresh vegetables, and agricultural and livestock products. No matter the dish, only ingredients unique to Yonezawa are used.
In addition, one of the wonders of Yonezawa is that you will be presented with different ingredients each time. Please enjoy each individual cooks’ originality in the Oshoshina Gozen “Kenshin Course” at the restaurants you visit.

InformationMeals are available by prior booking. Please contact the individual restaurant in advance.

To the birth of the dish

Development and tasting process of the menu items

From “this and that”
--ingredients we are proud of

“The best part of travel is tasting the food of the area”The cooks in Yonezawa gathered and shared their recipes and ideas: “What type of food do we want to entertain our guests with?”We invited specialists who are active in various fields in the cooking world, and held a tasting party.
They gave their opinions in detail on things such as seasoning, portion size, and women’s point of view, and then repeated the trial of the dishes. The “Kenshin Course” was then finally finished. There are plenty of other delicious ingredients that we have yet to introduce, but one of the best qualities of Yonezawa is that you can visit many times and enjoy different dishes depending on the season and the cook. All eyes will soon be on Japan, where the Olympic Games and the World Expo will be held.We hope to demonstrate the wonder of Yonezawa through the food culture.
