Experience the Fusion of Wellness and Flavor at Yuki no Sato
Yuki no Sato, a scenic natural hot spring in Shizuoka, is set to transform dining experiences by introducing the authentic Japanese-style Mala Soup, also known as "Mala Tan,"
starting November 4, 2025. This initiative aligns with the company's mission to enhance public health while minimizing food waste.
A New Culinary Vision
The newly launched Mala Soup is part of a broader vision by the
Tachibana Mala Tan Company, a subsidiary of
Nexter Inc., renowned for its innovative SNS marketing strategies. Co-managed by representatives
Saito Yu and
Hosoda Yuki, Tachibana Mala Tan aims to establish Japanese-style Mala Soup as the new emblem of Japanese culinary culture. Their goal is not only to cater to taste buds but also to promote sustainability within the food industry.
The Yuki no Sato facility, with its deeply rejuvenating natural hot springs, now offers guests the opportunity to savor this unique dish, which is crafted with health-conscious ingredients. Prices range from
¥1,480 for a mild variant to
¥1,630 for the spiciest option, allowing patrons to choose based on their spice tolerance.
Nourishing the Body and Mind
At Yuki no Sato, visitors can enjoy a diverse array of wellness amenities including various baths, saunas, and relaxation areas. This addition of Mala Soup introduces a novel concept called "Sah-meshi," which promotes healthy eating habits before or after using the baths. Such an innovative dining experience supports the overarching goal of improving quality of life (QOL) for visitors.
In addition to direct consumer sales, the company has engaged in B2B partnerships, supplying local dining establishments with frozen versions of their Mala Soup for wider accessibility. The approach not only aims to bring authentic Japanese flavors to the masses but also curtail food waste by utilizing ingredients that would otherwise go unused in conventional settings.
Event Highlights: "Tachibana Mala Tan No Yu"
As part of this exciting new venture, Yuki no Sato will host an exclusive event titled "Tachibana Mala Tan No Yu" on the weekend of
November 8-9, 2025. Attendees will immerse themselves in the therapeutic properties of herbal bath additives inspired by the ingredients used in the Mala Soup. This initiative highlights the company's commitment to both health and the cultural significance of herbal healing in Japanese traditions.
The bath additives are formulated with a selection of herbs previously utilized in Mala Soup, ensuring guests experience both aromatic pleasure and revitalization. The tranquil environment at Yuki no Sato creates the perfect backdrop for this unique journey into health and wellness.
Embracing Sustainability and Community Values
In embracing the principle of
"Ishoku Dogen" (the idea that food and medicine come from the same source), Tachibana Mala Tan is committed to promoting health through delicious meals. The rich heritage of this dish, known for its variety of spices and health benefits, merges beautifully with a philosophy that emphasizes the meaning behind meals.
Engaging local communities, the company also strives to respect and utilize regional agricultural resources, reinforcing the importance of a sustainable food supply chain. This dedication to community and flavor creates a dining experience that resonates with both locals and visitors alike.
The introduction of this innovative dining choice not only enhances culinary tourism in Shizuoka but also elevates dining expectations at natural hot springs, contributing to the broader hospitality landscape.
Conclusion
As Yuki no Sato sets the stage for the harmonious integration of culinary delight and wellness, the launch of Japanese-style Mala Soup reflects a forward-thinking approach to dining. It welcomes a new era of health-conscious eating, inviting everyone to partake in savoring tradition while prioritizing future sustainability for our planet and communities.
