This is a nice place for celebrations.  Not really a formal place.  But very good food with a wide selection of local liquor.

They have the solid foundation of Japanese traditional cooking techniques and the creative mind to play with local and seasonal foods of Okinawa.

A good selection of aged Awamori, local Okinawa liquor, sitting and aging in these big jars.

Awamori is a distilled liquor, made by indica rice fermented with unique black koji mold.  Japanese Sake is a brewed liquor, made by japonica rice fermented with koji mold.

Someone is getting drunk…

 

They serve in one plate.  Each plates are unique and beautiful.  They are all made by local artists.

And they provide serving plates for everyone.  Chilled plates for cold dish.  Warmed plates for hot dish.

Many little considerateness for total satisfying experience.

It looks like ordinary Goya Stir Fry which you see everywhere in Okinawa, but it tastes a little different.  The taste is finer.  It’s an Okinawa dish on the foundation of Japanese traditional cooking techniques.

Seasonal Okinawan Mixed Rice in Lotus Leaf.  This is their signature dish too.  Just beautiful, perfect seasoning.
