井川の鹿と、駿河湾の春鰯。
肉と魚、山と海。
性質の異なる素材を、ひとつの皿に。

⸻
脂を蓄えた鰯と対照的な
春の鹿肉は、炭火でカツに
対照的でありながら、
共通する鉄分が重なり、
単体では出ない輪郭をつくります。
竹チップで香りをまとわせためかぶが
鰯に海の余韻を重ね、
山のわらびが全体を引き締める。
なかなか文章だけでお伝えするのも難しく、
ぜひ実際に体験していただければと思います。

Ikawa venison and spring sardines from Suruga Bay.
Meat and fish.
Mountain and sea.
Two ingredients of different natures, brought together on a single plate.
⸻
Ikawa venison rump cutlet
Mekabu
Bracken fern
Sardine

In contrast to the sardines, rich with seasonal fat,
the spring venison is prepared as a cutlet over charcoal.
Though contrasting in character,
they share a common thread of iron-rich depth,
creating a profile that would not emerge from either on its own.
The mekabu, gently scented with bamboo chips,
adds a lingering note of the sea to the sardine,
while the mountain bracken fern brings the whole dish into focus.
This is admittedly difficult to fully convey through words alone,
and I hope you will have the chance to experience it for yourself.
