Located almost in the center of Yamagata Prefecture, this town spreads out at the foot of Mt. Gassan, and most of the town's total area is covered by forests, making it a town of wild vegetables (lol). A long time ago, I was taken care of as a second home for work, and it is home to the sacred mountain Gassan, a treasure trove of wild vegetables. It is a town of wild vegetables (^o^). The Rokuju-ri-goe Kaido, an ancient road of Dewa that connects the Shonai region with the inland region, is said to have been opened 1,200 years ago, and during the Muromachi and Edo periods, it was bustling with many pilgrims dressed in white robes as a pilgrimage route to the Dewa Sanzan mountains! Currently, the road has been developed as National Route 112, and it is a 30.9 km long bypass road that runs from Sunakoseki in Nishikawa-cho, Nishimurayama-gun, Yamagata Prefecture to Oami in Tsuruoka City, Yamagata Prefecture. We use it for a rest break at the toilet after crossing Mt. Gassan from Shonai! We use it to relieve ourselves before crossing Mt. Gassan from the inland to Shonai!

Main course, salad, rice, soup This is my wife's order! ◇Salad Crispy and fresh vegetables! Cabbage, purple cabbage, lettuce, carrots, cucumber, cherry tomatoes Served with sesame dressing✨ ◇Soup A rich and creamy potage topped with small croutons✨ ◇Beef stewed in Gassan beer It's so soft✨ That's what my wife said! Beef marinated in "Gassan Beer" and slowly simmered without any time or effort! The carbonation and alcohol in the beer work their magic on the beef! The meat is so tender that it falls apart in your mouth! The key is the sauce! The original sauce, which has a depth and sweetness like a combination of demi-glace sauce and Yamatoni, brings out the flavor of the beef and goes well with rice. ✨ I heard from a local acquaintance that they put a lot of effort into this seasoning! ◇Rice I forgot to ask, but it's shiny and the grains are large, so I wonder if it was Yukiwakamaru! It's delicious rice! Thank you for the meal! ◆"Pork cutlet curry" Main dish, salad, soup This is my order! ◇Pork cutlet curry The spiciness is medium spicy, which is popular with everyone! There is a pleasant aroma of spices, but the spiciness is quite normal! Freshly fried! The hot heat wraps around the crispy pork cutlet! Eat it with the red Fukujinzuke pickles that come on a separate plate✨ ◇Salad Crisp and fresh vegetables served on the side of curry! Cabbage, purple cabbage, lettuce, carrots, cucumbers, cherry tomatoes Served with sesame dressing✨ ◇Soup A thick and creamy potage topped with croutons✨ Dessert photo from another day ◆ "Local beer Soft serve ice cream"... 320 yen (the yellow one) A refreshing Soft serve ice cream with a slight wheat scent that contains malt juice from "Gassan Beer"! It has no bitterness and is non-alcoholic, so it is safe for children and those who are driving✨ ◆ "Shio Koji Soft serve ice cream"... 320 yen (the white one) The Japanese seasoning "Shio Koji" is said to have its roots in the pickling bed of Sangohachi pickles. The richness and sweetness of the milk and the saltiness of "Shio Koji" combine in a well-balanced way!
