This restaurant's ``Fuji no Kuni Capital of Food Craftsmen''
Ken Kawashima
Studied cooking at three French restaurants in Kagurazaka, Tokyo, including San Hwaseong, and Peninsula Tokyo in Hibiya. After that, he moved to Izu and obtained a hunting license. As a ``hunter'' who cooks while hunting, he works day and night to convey the charm of gibier to everyone.
Worker interview
Mr. Kawashima has long been interested in wild game, which is a familiar part of French cuisine. When opening a gibier restaurant, he chose Izu Kogen, which has a beautiful landscape with both the ocean and mountains. Using the cooking skills he acquired at a famous French restaurant, he serves dishes using wild game, such as curry and charcuterie platters made with deer and wild boar. ``If the meat is not properly processed, you won't be able to enjoy the true flavor of wild game,'' says Kawashima, who is both a chef and a hunter. The wild game processed by a local company that Mr. Kawashima has great trust in has no odor and has an excellent taste. The vegetables that come with the dish are mostly from Izu. The curry, which is said to be a repeat product for many people who have tried it, has been commercialized after repeated research so that it can be eaten deliciously even when frozen, and has gained fans across the country.
*Charcuterie: A general term for processed meat products such as ham, sausage, pâté, and terrine.
``Bone-in deer curry'' is full of impressive bone-in deer meat.
The curry is simmered with fonds taken from wild game and an original roux.
Full of umami with a fusion of sweetness and spice.
The meat is soft and juicy and falls apart with a spoon.
You can enjoy the original taste of game meat.
"Today's potage". On this day, I used round daikon radish.
Daikon radish has a strong sweetness even when eaten raw,
Combine it with slowly stir-fried onions to bring out its sweetness and make a potage.
Rich and addictive taste.
