Engraving the Memory of a Place Name. Hotel Kanazawa Introduces New Accommodation Plan with Japanese Kaiseki 'Horikawa'. A New Standard at Kanazawa Station to Casually Enjoy Noto Seafood and Kaga Local Cuisine.

A 1-minute walk from the Kenrokuen Exit (East Exit) of Kanazawa Station. Hotel Kanazawa Co., Ltd. (Location: Kanazawa City, Ishikawa Prefecture, General Manager: Kazuo Kojima), which provides cuisine emphasizing seasonal ingredients, will start accepting reservations for a special accommodation plan that includes the Japanese Kaiseki 'Horikawa' supervised by Japanese Head Chef Hashimoto and a locally-sourced breakfast buffet at the 1st-floor restaurant 'DINING TSUZUMI'. Time has passed since the Hokuriku Shinkansen extension, and Kanazawa continues to evolve. At its gateway, enjoy gastronomy bearing a historic place name and sleep with the lingering resonance. We propose a new form of travel walking alongside Noto producers who have overcome the earthquake.

## Japanese Kaiseki 'Horikawa'

### ■ Kanazawa's Tradition and Thoughts for Noto in One Dish

Due to lifestyle changes, opportunities to experience 'authentic Japanese food and kaiseki cuisine' are decreasing, especially among younger generations. We planned this kaiseki to pass on the memory of the former vitality and abundant water held by the place name 'Horikawa-shinmachi', where Hotel Kanazawa is located, to the next generation.

We pour our 'bonds with producers', re-recognized through the Noto Peninsula Earthquake, into each dish, delivering an experience that creates the future of Japanese cuisine. We provide food culture nurtured by the climate of Hokuriku along with its story, such as Kanazawa's representative local dish 'Jibuni', and to finish the meal, 'Noto Kajime Udon', which spreads the rich rocky shore scent of Noto. Through the experience of enjoying authentic tastes as an extension of everyday life, we connect the appeal of 'Kaga Cuisine', a registered intangible cultural property of the country that Ishikawa is proud of, to the future.

### ■ Thoughts Put into the Historic Place Name 'Horikawa'

The name crowning this kaiseki is the place name that carves the history this land has held since ancient times -- 'Horikawa'. The current area around Horikawa-shinmachi, Kanazawa City, developed from the Edo period through the Meiji and Taisho eras along with the 'Horikawa (irrigation canal)' that moistened this land. In the past, irrigation canals bringing abundant water flowed like a network through the streets of Kanazawa, supporting people's lives and forming a beautiful landscape. The memory of 'Horikawa', deeply rooted as a hub of water transport and a base where people came and went. In this name, we have imbued the vitality of bygone days, the rich blessings brought by water, and our deep respect for the local culture.
