Enjoy Seasonal Oyster Dishes in a Traditional and Elegant Japanese Space
Located approximately a 12-minute walk from JR Fukuchiyama Station, this long-established Japanese restaurant has been in business for about 100 years. Since its founding, "Kakisue Hinoki" has been delivering high-quality oysters directly from producers in Hiroshima Prefecture every morning. From November to May, the restaurant operates as "Kakisue", where customers can enjoy a wide variety of oyster dishes such as "Karatsuki Namakaki Lemon Zoe (fresh oysters in the shell with lemon)", "Dote Nabe", "Kaki Fry (fried oysters)" and "Kakimeshi (oyster rice)". From June to October, the restaurant's name changes to "Hinoki", where the main dishes are "awara soba" and "kaiseki cuisine (focuses on a banquet-style with alcohol)." The restaurant, which serves oyster dishes, is a relocated oyster boat from Hiroshima Prefecture and is equipped with table seating, sunken kotatsu seating, and private rooms, making it suitable for a wide range of customers, from individuals to groups.
Experience the Rich Flavour of Oysters with the Signature "Dote Nabe"
If you want to enjoy the deliciousness of oysters, we recommend the "Dote Nabe". The dish features oysters, green onions, Chinese cabbage, komatsuna, grilled tofu, and konjac, all simmered in a white miso-based broth accented with ginger. Adding a raw egg to the hot broth gives the oysters an even richer and mellower flavour. If you don't like oysters, you can also change it to pork or other ingredients.
A Refined Atmosphere That Evokes Nostalgic Elegance
In the past, Hiroshima was home to oyster boats that served oyster dishes, and this restaurant is an elegant mansion that was relocated from one of those boats to this location. The restaurant's interior is an extraordinary, luxurious space that evokes the good old days. All seating is in private rooms, and there are tables, sunken kotatsu seats, and tatami rooms, so it is recommended for meals with important people, banquets, weddings, funerals, and other ceremonial occasions.
