Experience the Delights of Shinshu Cuisine This Summer at Courtyard by Marriott Hakuba

From June 1 to August 31, 2026, Courtyard by Marriott Hakuba will unveil a special summer menu showcasing the rich, diverse culinary culture of Shinshu. Nestled in the pristine surroundings of the Northern Alps, this luxury hotel aims to elevate your experience by offering a blend of traditional and contemporary Shinshu flavors.

In recent years, travelers have shown increasing interest in not just enjoying delicious meals, but also savoring unique local ingredients and the cultural narratives that accompany them. The summer menu features three exclusive dishes that embody the essence of Shinshu's local cuisine:

1. Shinshu Oyaki Burger
2. Miasa Deer Carpaccio with Hakuba Farm Blueberry Sauce
3. HAKUBA GREEN MOJITO

The Shinshu Oyaki Burger is a bold reinterpretation of the classic local dish “oyaki.” This dish incorporates a fried bun filled with Nozawana pickled mustard greens, showcasing the quintessential flavors of Shinshu. It is complemented with a juicy patty made from Shinshu beef, garnished with sautéed apples for a perfect balance of sweetness and richness.

For an adventurous taste sensation, the Miasa Deer Carpaccio features venison raised in the Miasa region, expertly cooked to achieve a tender and moist texture. This delicacy is seasoned simply with salt and olive oil to highlight the meat's natural flavors. It is served with a rich eggplant and yogurt puree, topped with a vibrant blueberry sauce sourced from Hakuba, adding depth and a fruity kick. Finished with a truffle vinaigrette and edible flowers, it offers a visually stunning dish that embodies the lightness and strength ideal for the summer season.

The HAKUBA GREEN MOJITO is a refreshing cocktail inspired by the forests of Hakuba. This drink combines fresh mint, lime, and white rum, infused with wasabi from Azumino, which provides a refreshing twist to the classic mojito. The homemade wasabi syrup, made with crushed wasabi and simple syrup, contributes a crisp coolness upon the first sip, while the lingering aftertaste enhances the overall experience. This cocktail captures the essence of Shinshu's natural surroundings and is perfect for celebrating summer moments.
