When we asked the staff member, Mr. Yamazawa, for a recommended menu using local ingredients, he recommended ”Raw Seaweed and Whitebait Pizza.”

Neapolitan pizza baked in an authentic stone oven. The flavor of seaweed from Lake Hamana is utilized to create a pizza that can be eaten as a snack.

The chewy texture of the dough is made with great care and effort every day.

Other popular menu items include ”Shizuoka-raised roast beef”, ”3 types of tapas” with the chef’s recommendations for the day, and ”Ajillo (various types)” that go perfectly with the unlimited baguette.
