■ Addressing the accelerating 'Kanazawa Dinner Refugee' problem with a hotel-exclusive solution. Heartwarming hospitality woven with 'Nodoguro' dishes and local flavors.

Kanazawa is vibrant with the Shinkansen extension. On the other hand, there are increasing earnest voices from tourists saying, 'It's a precious trip, but popular restaurants are fully booked months in advance,' and 'I can't find a place near the station to quietly enjoy local specialties.'

Hotel Kanazawa, as a hotel located at the gateway to Kanazawa, wants to solve these challenges and provide a stress-free, high-quality end to a trip. Therefore, our Japanese chefs have put all their efforts into devising this 'Nodoguro Kaiseki'. You can certainly enjoy authentic local cuisine, showcasing the chef's skills, in an open space conveniently located close to the station.

■ Three Approaches to Maximize Nodoguro's Potential

The star of this course is the high-class fish 'Nodoguro,' known as 'white fish toro' due to its rich fat. We have sublimated its charm, which cannot be fully experienced in a single dish, into diverse flavors by offering it in three different cooking methods.

【Still】Salt-grilled Nodoguro: With simple salt-grilling, directly experience the overflowing high-quality fat and the sweetness of the flesh.

【Action】Nodoguro Shinjo and Eggplant Deep-fried Sandwich: The umami of nodoguro spreads from the crispy coating, creating a textural contrast.

【Finish】Seared Rice Ball with Special Sesame Dashi Chazuke: Enjoy the rich sesame dashi with the fragrantly seared nodoguro. Savor the seafood of Hokuriku down to the last drop.

Additionally, 'Kamo no Jibuni,' a local dish symbolizing Kanazawa's samurai culture, is also on the menu. The thickened broth traps the duck meat's umami, further enhancing Kanazawa's distinctiveness.
