Elaborate Meals in Traditional Building - Edit
This was a really special place to stay, a very traditional old building. To be honest, I felt a little too large and clumsy for it, like I was thundering into everything! The bedroom was really spacious. The private onsen was really great, we enjoyed it very much.
Read moreThe owner welcomed us warmly, but left us to our own devices for the most part, which was fine as we mostly just wanted to rest.
We requested vegan (vegetarian type E) meals and were happy with what we got. For dinner, we had seven small dishes of vegetables prepared in different ways, plus some soup, rice, and a curry. There was plenty of food, we were really full afterwards. The dishes were well seasoned too, this felt like the work of someone who knows what they're doing with vegetables. For breakfast we had a soup, cooked vegetables, salad, banana, apple, a bagel, and a kind of creamy tofu that was a bit like cottage cheese. It was an eclectic mix for us personally, but the bagel and tofu were highlights and helped to keep us full. No lunch boxes are available, so ours was delivered from a different guesthouse. It was delivered nice and early to our guesthouse, while we were having breakfast. It was a hearty vegan (vegetarian type E) lunch, with rice, mock meat, potatoes, and vegetables. It was good and filling, and everything was seasoned - nothing bland at all.
Recommended for fellow vegans on the trails!
