[Sheraton Kagoshima] 'Tarumizu City & Mediterranean Fair' to be held from July 1st

Sheraton Kagoshima will hold the 'Tarumizu City & Mediterranean Fair' for a limited time from July 1 (Wed) to September 30 (Wed), 2026, as a collaboration project between the region and food. An opening ceremony will be held on July 1 (Wed), featuring Mayor Masaya Owaki of Tarumizu City, who will speak about the appeal of Tarumizu's ingredients. The water fairy 'Tarutaru' will also make an appearance. In this project, high-quality ingredients from Tarumizu City, which is adjacent to Kagoshima's symbol, Sakurajima, and blessed with magnificent nature, will be served as a variety of menus prepared with the essence of Mediterranean cuisine. By delicately layering fragrant olive oil, herbs, and spices, we have carefully brought out the original flavor of the ingredients, accompanied by vivid colors that evoke the blessings of the sun. We will deliver a new charm of Kagoshima's food by fusing the blessings of Tarumizu City with Mediterranean food culture. This regional food collaboration project, which started from the desire of Sheraton Kagoshima to promote the charm of Kagoshima's food, marks its 14th edition. The Tarumizu City x Mediterranean menu at the 'Daily Social' buffet is truly diverse, including Mediterranean staples like 'Bouillabaisse', 'Sardine Beccafico' which combines the juiciness of grilled sardines with the gentle sweetness of dried fruits and the freshness of citrus, Pork Saltimbocca, and Greek salad. Please spend a special moment with exciting dishes that make abundant use of carefully selected Tarumizu City ingredients, such as the brand pork 'Sakurajima Biyuton' raised on hot spring water, the farmed amberjack 'Umi no Okan' fed with shochu lees and tea, and vegetables, fruits, and herbs grown on the mineral-rich volcanic ash Shirasu plateau.
