Introducing the 2025 Spring Kaiseki Menu

Although there is still snow in Noboribetsu Onsen, we can gradually feel spring in the air. Here at Takimotokan, we’ve embraced the season with our Spring Kaiseki, featuring a colorful array of dishes made with the freshest spring ingredients, delivering the very essence of the season, starting from the very first bite.

We are pleased to present a selection of dishes from our Spring Kaiseki Menu, launching on March 1st, highlighting the vibrant colors of the season.

Surf clams seasoned with wasabi, firefly squid marinated in soy sauce, yomogi-infused sesame tofu in cloud-dragon pattern and tsukushi, signaling the arrival of spring. Hokkaido wine-fed pork with kelp creates an exquisite harmony with the flavor of the kelp, which enhances the delicate flavors of the pork. The dainty appetizers are a perfect way to start off a spring feast.
