With every bite, the power of the earth permeates every corner of your body.<\/p>\n<p>The soup, which blends the sweetness of root vegetables, is generously topped with radishes, pumpkins, carrots and other vegetables that have grown vigorously underground, and is permeated with the rich broth absorbed by the deep-fried tofu tea towels and the deep flavor of Kurosengoku soybeans... A heart-warming soup that will have you smiling beyond the steam.<\/p>\n<p>The three side dishes celebrate the season, including a pumpkin salad filled with autumn harvest, accented with mixed beans and raisins.<br \/>\nThe persimmon and apple yogurt dressing is as refreshing as the early winter breeze, and the Tosa-ni bamboo shoots add a nostalgic and gentle Japanese flavor.<\/p>\n<p>The steam from new rice, the aroma of new beans, and the colors of seasonal vegetables are a testament to our gratitude for the seasons.<br \/>\nExperience the bliss of early winter surrounded by the rich nature of Hokuryu Town. It&#039;s a precious moment of &quot;Itadakimasu&quot; (thank you for the meal) that warms both body and soul from the inside out.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a
