We had a “samurai’s dining table” lunch.

2, Feast of feasting

3. To create a rhythm in one’s life by incorporating the seasons and social conditions.
   The “Three Principles” are

The menu is as follows
1,Handmade pickled plums from Kaga
2，Vinegared cucumber, pickles and dried radish with pineapple jelly
3，Buri Daikon (local dish of Kanazawa)
4，Winter melon, shiitake mushroom, sweet potato and string bean with starchy sauce (with carrot)
5，Broiled lotus root, sweet potato, dried tofu and deep-fried tofu with cream sauce (with French bread)
6，Miso soup (Chinese cabbage and leek)
7，Purification rice gruel (azuki-bean porridge)
