A New Gem in Kita-Senju: Wine Bar 'HiBi'
On March 10, 2026, the vibrant neighborhood of Kita-Senju welcomed an exciting new venue, a wine bar named 'HiBi'. Operated by Toyaman Co., Ltd., this marks the company's first venture into the Western-style dining scene. 'HiBi' aims to fill a unique niche in the area, perfectly blending casual dining with a selection of exquisite wines and house-made sours.
Located just a short walk from Kita-Senju Station, 'HiBi' offers patrons both a comfortable atmosphere and exceptional service. Guests can enjoy an array of dishes, from seasonal appetizers to tantalizing mains, all while sipping on carefully selected wines that complement the culinary offerings.
A Menu Crafted with Care
Among the highlights of the menu are the signature 'HiBi's 12 Assorted Appetizers' and 'Thinly Sliced Prosciutto with Nocca Fritto'. The former allows guests to sample an assortment of twelve thoughtfully curated small dishes, showcasing a variety of flavors and textures—from classic European favorites to seasonal delights. The ingredients are always changing, ensuring that every visit offers a new experience.
The 'Thinly Sliced Prosciutto', meanwhile, is prepared using a legendary BERKEL slicer, allowing for paper-thin cuts that melt in the mouth, making it an absolute must-try when paired with the warm, fluffy nocca fritto.
The main dishes do not disappoint either, featuring a range of options such as tender beef braised in red wine served with creamy risotto, and rare steaks crafted from high-quality Japanese beef. For pasta enthusiasts, 'Pici with Tomato Sauce' and 'Genovese with Tsunashima Basils' bring comforting familiarity while spotlighting the richness of these simple carbohydrates.
Perfect Pairings and Signature Drinks
In addition to food, 'HiBi' prides itself on an extensive wine selection that caters to all tastes, including both classic and natural wines. The 'Rock de!! Lambrusco', a bubbly red wine, is particularly recommended, as it pairs perfectly with their sharable dishes. For those who prefer innovative cocktails, 'HiBi' offers signature drinks like their house gin and tonic or refreshing herb-infused sours.
The bar’s ambiance is equally memorable, enhanced by careful attention to sound design and the friendly demeanor of the staff. This thoughtful curation helps create an inviting environment that encourages guests to linger and socialize.
HiBi is also keen on keeping patrons updated through its vibrant Instagram account, where followers can explore the latest menu items and special events.
