Hotel Kanazawa (1-1 Horikawa Shinmachi, Kanazawa City, Ishikawa; General Manager: Kazuo Kojima) is updating the menu of its popular dinner course "奏 KANADE," served at the 1st floor restaurant DINING TSUZUMI, with a new summer selection starting Wednesday, July 1, 2026.
A Luxurious Full Course Featuring Noto Pork and Sea Bass in Innovative Preparations
"奏 KANADE" is a dinner course that draws out the finest qualities of seasonal ingredients through French culinary techniques, creating a beautiful harmony on the plate — as if the dishes themselves are playing music. The menu is refreshed with each season, allowing guests to experience Ishikawa's rich local food culture through the finest ingredients of the moment.
A Colorful "Summer" — Seven Courses Highlighting Noto Pork and Summer Vegetables
The summer menu opens with an amuse of shirasu and matcha tart, followed by a poele of scallop in a refreshing passion fruit and mint oil. A chilled potage of grilled eggplant and potato, with its hidden smoky depth, leads into the main courses.
For the main, guests can choose one of three options: grilled Noto pork, braised sea bass dressed in a sea urchin sauce accented with fish sauce, or wagyu poele with summer vegetables (available at an additional charge). The meal closes with a terrine of two citrus fruits paired with black tea ice cream — a cool and elegant finale that brings together all seven courses.
Sharing "The Charm of Ishikawa's Summer" Through Food
Ishikawa's rich natural bounty takes on a different character with each season. The new "奏" course, launched this spring, evolves into its "summer menu" — a chapter in the four-season story the restaurant aims to tell. By showcasing local ingredients like branded Noto pork and in-season sea bass, the course seeks to express the message that "summer in Kanazawa is this delicious, this beautiful," with the goal of becoming a new symbol of the city's summer.
