Agriturismo Viva La Vita: In the morning, the chirping of birds; in the evening, the pleasant croaking of frogs. Occasionally, pheasants can also be seen.
Agriturismo Viva La Vita is a 40-minute drive from Kanazawa City and an hour from Toyama City. It is a Northern Italian regional cuisine restaurant (limited to 3 groups) and a rural inn (accommodation limited to 1 group) located in Oyabe City, the western gateway to Toyama Prefecture. Situated in a location with idyllic satoyama scenery, the surrounding area boasts scenic spots like Miyajima Gorge and Inabayama Ranch, historical assets such as Kurikara Fudoji Temple, and sites along the old Hokuriku Road. The chef, captivated by Italian agriturismo which utilizes old buildings to entertain guests with local produce and enjoy rural life, renovated an abandoned old folk house. He cultivates rare Italian vegetables in nearby fields, offering high-value experiences unique to the countryside.
■ Farm Experience and FARM TO TABLE
In conjunction with the summer vegetable harvest season, we are launching a one-night, two-meal farm experience course plan that includes a harvesting experience and enjoying the harvested vegetables for dinner and breakfast, embodying the "FARM TO TABLE" concept. (Reservations open May 1st on the official website and Instagram.) The plan also includes a ticket for a nearby natural hot spring, allowing guests to enjoy a warm bath after the farm experience and explore the surroundings before dinner.
Early summer artichokes and zucchini flowers
An approach with the aroma of herbs, aperitifs, and reading time at Miyajima Gorge, Ichinotaki waterfall
Inabayama Ranch
■ Primitive Wood-Fired Cooking, Simply
For dinner, the main dish is wood-fired grilled summer vegetables harvested during the experience, along with Inaba Märchen beef from the nearby Inabayama Ranch. Enjoy the subtle smoky aroma and the robust, savory char unique to wood-fired cooking, seasoned simply with salt and olive oil to bring out the ingredients' natural charm. Appetizers, pasta, and risotto are all prepared with the vegetables you harvested.
Inspired by the hearty Bistecca of Tuscany
Dining space limited to one group
Märchen beef wood-fired grill, garden tomato cappellini, zucchini flower oven bake, home-grown rice risotto
■ Commitment to Agriturismo: Inheriting, Connecting, Cherishing
The closeness of food and nature, or agriturismo, was the most captivating aspect of Italy that the chef experienced during his training. It involves carefully nurturing and cherishing ingredients, which are blessings from nature, and cultivating land that has been passed down through generations. Japan faces a severe shortage of agricultural workers and successors, leading to an expansion of abandoned farmland. Agriturismo, by embodying the charm of rural areas, can be an opportunity to raise interest. Agriturismo Viva La Vita's concept is that if a travel style that simply enjoys rural time, or a travel style that enjoys harvesting and eating, becomes established as a new way to travel, allowing guests to freely enjoy rural time, then new prospects for rural areas will open up.
