Autumn appetites!
Savor kinmedai and Ise lobster caught in the seas around Shimoda (^○^)
This time I tagged along for a shoot with the Shimoda Kaikoku Museum.
A video will be posted soon on the Shimoda Kaikoku Museum YouTube channel (＼(^o^)／).
Please look forward to it!
The shoot took place at Senmisho Ryoma, a five-minute walk from Izukyu-Shimoda Station.
The chef’s handwork I watched across the counter was nothing short of divine!
Kinmedai are landed year-round, but their flavor changes with the seasons.
Ise lobster is available only in autumn and winter! The Ise lobster season is now in full swing!
Both are luxury ingredients—be sure to taste these seasonal flavors while you can!
You can enjoy them at restaurants and accommodations in the city.

Screening Notice for the Film “Here, Alive. – Guided by the Disappearing Seaweed Forests”
We will screen the film “Here, Alive. – Guided by the Disappearing Seaweed Forests.”
This film asks how we should relate to the sea as seaweed forests are rapidly disappearing across the country.
The theme is deeply connected to washoku (Japanese cuisine) culture and marine ecosystems.
Please take this opportunity to reflect with us on the sea, the environment, and daily life through the film.

Shimoda Brewing Company opened this spring about a five-minute walk from Izukyu-Shimoda Station (●´ω｀●).
The brewery is located inside the taproom, so you can enjoy freshly brewed craft beer on the spot—
a luxurious moment in Shimoda.🍺✨
In summer, of course, you can savor it casually; on long autumn nights you can savor its depth, and in the dry winter air a refreshing pint will hit the spot.♬
Beers enjoyed with the seasons each have their own character.
For my craft beer debut that day, I chose “SUNSET,” which has the lowest IBU (bitterness rating).
Its light, crisp profile was perfect for a first glass.
Next time, I’m looking forward to deliberately trying a beer with a higher IBU.
Tasting different beers each season feels like a way to discover the depth of beer.
Inside the venue there are a counter, tables, and a deck.
If you like beer, please drop by (^^)!
