ChefChef Fukumoto's Seasonal and Colorful Cuisine

- Enjoy authentic Japanese cuisine crafted with care and attention to detail - Originally from Kanagawa Prefecture. At the age of 17, I entered the world of Japanese cuisine and began my journey as a chef, training primarily in kaiseki restaurants and kappo establishments. At 24, I was recognized for my skills and expressiveness by the head chef I was apprenticing under, who recommended that I learn cutting-edge cooking techniques in Tokyo. I also served as the head chef at the popular Hiroo Kira. After that, I became the head chef at a resort hotel in my hometown of Kanagawa. In 2015, I was featured in the Michelin Guide. In 2019, I was appointed as the head chef at Kutsukake Stay in Karuizawa.

Space"Unique Features of a Modern Traditional House"

As you ascend the stone steps, you will find a garden that leads to the main entrance. The main building, said to be over 40 years old, preserves its beams and columns, creating a space where traditional Japanese architecture and contemporary art blend together. Please enjoy a leisurely time of exquisite dining.

Drink"Accompanied by the Fine Sake of Shinshu"

I want you to enjoy the beautiful sake of Shinshu at a reasonable price. We are waiting for you with a selection of fine sake from all over Japan, centered around the local sake born from Shinshu's pure water and the world-renowned NAGANOWINE.

Food Seasonal Delicacies Kaiseki Dining

- Seasonal flavors that you want to enjoy right now - The fresh fish delivered directly from the wholesalers at Misaki Port is the best of the day. The morning-harvested vegetables come from contracted farmers in Karuizawa. We create our menu using the ingredients that are best to enjoy at that particular day and time. Please enjoy the various dishes carefully prepared by Chef Fukamoto.
