Huis Ten Bosch, the theme park resort in Nagasaki Prefecture, will welcome a new Japanese restaurant, Dashi Shabu Obanzai Okaka (出汁しゃぶ おばんざい おかか), on November 1, 2026 (Sunday). It will be the first Okaka restaurant in Kyushu, among the five Okaka restaurants operating in Japan (according to a web survey conducted in October 2026). Details are available on the Huis Ten Bosch special website.
The new restaurant joins the wide variety of dining options at Huis Ten Bosch under the concept of "enjoying dashi to your heart's content." At the dashi shabu specialty restaurant, both domestic visitors and guests from overseas can experience the appeal of Japanese dashi.
The star of the menu is the fragrant first dashi (ichiban dashi), drawn from bonito flakes that are shaved to an ultra-thin 0.01 mm at the front of the restaurant. Carefully selected Kagoshima Kurobuta (black pork) and Kyushu morning-harvested vegetables, which are available as unlimited refills exclusively at Huis Ten Bosch, are lightly dipped in the dashi for a meal that engages all five senses.
In addition to the signature dashi shabu, the menu includes colorful seasonal obanzai (Japanese home-style side dishes), dishes unique to Kyushu, and a wide selection of drinks. It is a dining experience built around dashi that warms you to the core.
Assorted six obanzai (changes daily)
Assorted Kyushu colorful sours

About "Okaka"
The name "Okaka" is derived from katsuobushi (bonito flakes), and true to its name, the restaurant shaves its carefully selected honkare-bushi using a shaving machine at the front of the shop to a thickness of 0.01 mm. The main dish is dashi shabu, made with plenty of this freshly shaved bonito and prepared without additives or chemical seasonings. The dashi, drawn from an original blend, is finished in front of guests by adding more bonito flakes, which brings out a rich flavor and completes the broth.
Meat that is thinly sliced only after an order is placed is dipped, together with seasonal vegetables, in this dashi, letting guests experience the concept of "eating the dashi." Because the dashi is drawn from freshly shaved bonito, the restaurant offers a dashi shabu experience that is gentle on the body.
