A Serene Escape in a Historic Japanese Garden
Set in a
10,000 tsubo (approx. 33,000 square meters) Japanese garden that boasts about
400 years of history, the Hotel New Otani offers a tranquil refuge from the bustling city. This picturesque venue is not just a hotel; it is a celebration of nature and culinary mastery. The garden features three exceptional teppanyaki dining options: Ishin-tei, Seisen-tei, and the highlighted Momiji-tei, each offering a unique atmosphere and a panoramic view of lush surroundings.
The Unforgettable Kids Chef Experience
At Momiji-tei, families have the opportunity to engage in a 'Kids Chef Experience,' tailored specifically for young culinary enthusiasts. Children don chef’s uniforms and learn firsthand from experienced chefs, creating a delightful array of dishes while forging special memories with their loved ones. During the exclusive lunch course, families will not only enjoy well-prepared meals but also witness the magic of cooking as they work collaboratively on special menu items.
A Unique Culinary Course for Families
The culinary journey encompasses a comprehensive
six-course meal including salad, seafood, grilled vegetables, meat dishes, rice, and dessert. Children will actively participate in preparing certain items on the menu alongside the chef, ensuring everyone can understand the process regardless of their cooking experience. Each teaching moment is filled with tips and techniques that make cooking enjoyable and informative.
Once the meal is complete, families come together around the table to share the dishes crafted with love and dedication. The dishes represent not just food but a moment of connection, infused with the memories made during this summer vacation.
