Legendary Flavors from Hokkaido

Additionally, renowned chefs Seizan Mikuni and Yoshitomo Wakiya collaborate to present the ‘Hokkaido Legend Osechi’, featuring ingredients sourced exclusively from their home region of Hokkaido. This exquisite collection blends French and Chinese culinary traditions, with dishes that highlight local produce such as marinated octopus and Ezo venison meatloaf from chef Mikuni, alongside chef Wakiya's chili-sauce-seared scallops and black vinegar stir-fried beef. This unique offering promises to tantalize your taste buds with the richness of Hokkaido's land and sea.
