Meals at HOSHINOYA Fuji consist of multiple courses of French-inspired fare, prepared with local ingredients found in the wild. Main dishes feature the meat of wildlife captured by skilled local hunters, prepared as appropriate for the season. Wild deer and boar change their diets based on the climate in the mountains, as well as the time of the year, which affects the flavor of their meat. In the spring, when game meat is relatively odorless, I cook it with wild herbs and vegetables. In the summer, when the meat is fatty, I prepare it with fruit. In the fall, when the meat is enriched by a wide range of woodland feed such as mushrooms, I hunt game for offal and other exotic parts. In the winter, when game meat is lean, I serve it in a shabu-shabu.
Preparing a meal in the woods is often associated with simple ingredients and laborious preparation, but with the right setting and ingredients, it can transform into a rich dining experience. At HOSHINOYA Fuji, guests are offered three dining options. Those who enjoy al fresco dining can cook a variety of high-quality ingredients in Dutch ovens and skillets at Forest Kitchen, with a glamping-master guiding them every step of the way. Guests who prefer a more relaxed setting may grab a table in the Dining Hall, which features a large grill station where a chef prepares meat to the guest's desired tenderness. There is also the option of dining on the terrace in one's cabin while enjoying the majestic scenery that extends below. In the winter, covered tables that are heated from beneath are provided.
Tagawa has long enjoyed the outdoors, having fished and camped since he was a child. He has served as chef at numerous hotels and restaurants in Karuizawa, Nagano prefecture, where he developed the skills he applies to his unique approach to dining. At HOSHINOYA Fuji, he focuses on offering both high-quality ingredients produced by the area's rich soil and water, as well as a sense of fun that deepens the guest's appreciation for the outdoors.
