Autumn Delicacies: Indulge in a Flavorful Italian Lunch in Kichijoji

Experience the Essence of Autumn

This September, the Inokashira Kichijo Dining at Kichijoji Tokyu REI Hotel in Musashino City, Tokyo, is offering an enticing Italian lunch course titled "Delizie d’autunno", celebrating the rich flavors of autumn from September 1 to September 30, 2025. This year's menu not only features traditional Italian dishes but also emphasizes the seasonal produce that embodies the spirit of fall, making it an exciting gastronomic experience.

A Culinary Journey with Seasonal Ingredients

The lunch course starts with a selection of exquisite antipasti. One standout dish is the "Autumn Mackerel Terrine served with Shellfish Gelée", where beautifully cooked autumn mackerel is complemented by a rich gelée bursting with the essence of shellfish. Another highlight is the "Homemade Roasted Ham with Salsa Tonnata", which is prepared with a meticulous low-temperature cooking technique resulting in a tender and flavorful dish.

For the fish course, guests will enjoy the "Swordfish and Seafood Aquapazza", made with fresh swordfish that is lightly grilled to reduce any fishy taste before being simmered to retain its fluffy texture. This dish is served in a broth that beautifully melds the savory flavors of the seafood.

The main course features the "Beef Ribeye Steak in the Style of Tagliata" originating from Tuscany. The thinly sliced ribeye exudes a pleasant tenderness, heightened by the addition of Parmesan cheese and balsamic sauce, enhancing the natural taste of the meat.

To conclude your meal, savor the "Dolce (Italian Pudding)", enriched with cream cheese for added depth. This dessert has a delightful, slightly firm texture, paired perfectly with a slightly bitter caramel sauce and whipped cream.

Salad Buffet and Local Produce

In addition to the meticulously crafted dishes, this course includes a popular salad buffet featuring fresh vegetables sourced from the nearby "Kobito Farm" in Musashino City. The farm is known for its community engagement through various agricultural activities and nurturing a variety of colorful vegetables. Enjoying seasonal produce exclusively available at our restaurant enhances the overall dining experience, merging local bounty with Italian culinary art.
