Three restaurants in Tokyo are serving up the rustic flavors of northern cuisine: Here is what’s on the menu…
Yurihonjo Sakaba
This restaurant specializes in fare originating from Yurihonjo City, on the southern sea side of Akita Prefecture. Yurihonjo City is famous for nearby Mt. Chokai and the rich farmlands that surround it, which are the source of the colorful, Akita-grown produce that is delivered directly to the restaurant fresh every morning.
Don’t miss the traditional “lion dancing” show that takes place every night at 8 pm.
Address: 2-4-6 Kanda Nishikicho, Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo
