Island Terroir
"Terroir" refers to the environmental characteristics of the land where ingredients are grown. In the Yaeyama Islands, there is not only well-known tropical produce but also a unique food culture.
In Summer 2025, our dining experience is reborn. Discover a deeper connection to Okinawan culture through dishes where the selected local ingredients and unique island seasonings are elevated by French culinary artistry.
A dish woven by the island and its people.
We feature vibrant, seasonal fruits and vegetables from the southern Isles and a rich bounty of seafood brought by the ocean currents. Our cuisine is creatively prepared with unique local ingredients, such as an artisanal soy sauce crafted on Taketomi Island.
Exceptional ingredients encountered on Taketomi Island
At Taketomi Island, surrounded by nutrient-rich seawater and maintaining warm temperatures year-round, the Caridean shrimp cultivated here are of the finest quality. We have prepared a dish for you to savor the refined sweetness and bursting deliciousness of these prawns.
precious wisdom of one's predecessors
On the island, where there were no doctors, people used herbs called 'nuchigusa' to protect their health. These life herbs, which have safeguarded the island's people, are now incorporated into the essence of the island terroir.
