Discover Authentic Spanish Flavors at SPANISH DINING Rico in Ginza

For a limited time, Japanese food enthusiasts can experience the delectable offerings of SPANISH DINING Rico, located at GINZA Stage in the Ginza Mitsukoshi basement. This esteemed restaurant, operated by Greenhouse Foods Co., Ltd., is presenting its enticing menu from January 28 to February 2, 2026, under the theme 'Spring Anticipation.'

Unveiling Exclusive Delicacies

Rico is known for its traditional Spanish cuisine, and this event features a unique dish exclusive to the Ginza location: the Confliced Oysters from Etajima with Colorful Vegetables Paella. These incredible oysters are sourced from the calm seas off Etajima in Hiroshima Prefecture, where they are nurtured to develop a rich flavor and sweetness that expands with each bite. To craft this exquisite dish, the oysters are slowly cooked at a low temperature in olive oil, resulting in a deliciously concentrated confit that perfectly highlights their natural essence. This paella is a limited-time offering that beautifully melds the flavors of premium seafood with vibrant vegetables, creating a culinary masterpiece.

In addition to the paella, guests can enjoy a selection of other sumptuous dishes, including:

• - A luxurious Premium Paella Plate featuring crab, shrimp, scallops, clam, and mussels.
• - The enticing Frikando, a dish of Kumamoto Prefecture’s Aka beef, slowly simmered for eight hours in red wine and sherry.
• - Popular desserts like the Basque Cheesecake and Chocolate Basque Cheesecake, which showcase creamy cheese with minimal acidity.

And for seafood lovers, the Barcelona-style Seafood Paella is a must-try, capturing the essence of coastal Spain. Each dish is an opportunity to savor the highest quality ingredients from Spain and Japan, inviting diners to indulge in a gourmet experience.

A Culinary Journey from Etajima

The oysters from Etajima have gained a reputation for their exceptional quality, described as a divine gift with a sweet, umami flavor. The nutritional benefits from the plankton-rich waters help the oysters grow significantly, making them large and flavorful. These oysters undergo stringent quality control to ensure that only the best reaches the plates of diners.
