Dinner of Yatsugatake vegetables and venison

A six-course dinner built on vegetables from nearby fields and venison from Yatsugatake hunters. Yamanashi wines are available by the glass to match.

How to enjoy it

Venison is lean and tender red meat. If it is new to you, try a bite with just salt first. The grilled vegetables taste sweeter or sharper as the seasons change, even from the same field.
