Destination Restaurants Series - What's the Best Season?
The first 10 restaurants were announced in 2021. I wrote one a month into last year and then we started again from the middle of last year. The highlights of the 2022 series so far was my visit up to Niigata, which is mountainous country right in the highlands. There's a wonderful lodge called Satoyama jujo. And whatever the season is a good time to be there. But I actually think I went to the best season, which was in the early autumn because the thing started to get the wild foods coming. You hear the chef is very keen on foraging. So we got a lot of sunsai like mountain vegetables or? Absolutely.
