Shinojima Takamineso

For New Year's, I booked Takamineso, located on the highest point of Shinojima, a remote island in Aichi, with three friends. This time, a friend from Shinojima provided a car, so we were able to explore Shinojima, including the beautiful sandy beaches and the monument park, before checking in, which was a lot of fun. The inn's food was a gorgeous special New Year's kaiseki meal, featuring everything from pufferfish to spiny lobster, abalone, and Chita beef, all of which were incredibly luxurious and delicious!!! The bath had a great view, and the hot spring water from Minamichita warmed me to the core. Breakfast was also sumptuous, with spiny lobster soup and whitebait so delicious that I ate three bowls of rice and was completely stuffed. Thank you for the meal. <Special kaiseki dinner> ◆ Appetizers including boiled abalone ◆ Local fish sashimi and raw oysters ◆ Spiny lobster sashimi ◆ Tessa ◆ Tetchiri and oyster hotpot (finish with rice porridge) ◆ Chita beef fillet steak teppanyaki ◆ Golden grilled shrimp ◆ Octopus rice ◆ Vinegared dish ◆ Pickles ◆ Dessert <Special kaiseki breakfast> ◆ Steamed abalone ◆ Dried fish, dried whitebait, raw* ◆ Seasoned seaweed and rice ◆ Spiny lobster soup
