A Fair Built Around Seasonal Hyogo Vegetables
Kobe Plaisir Honten (神戸プレジール本店) is a restaurant directly operated by the Hyogo Prefecture headquarters of the National Federation of Agricultural Cooperative Associations (JA Zen-Noh Hyogo, JA全農兵庫). From November 1 to November 29, 2026, it is holding the "JA Tanba Hikami Fair" (JA丹波ひかみフェア).
The restaurant serves menus built around seasonal ingredients from across Hyogo Prefecture, with the aim of introducing the appeal of Hyogo-produced agricultural and livestock products to more people.
The November menu centers on seasonal ingredients grown in the natural surroundings of the area covered by JA Tanba Hikami (JA丹波ひかみ). It uses plenty of locally harvested "Hyogo vegetables," including shiitake mushrooms, black edamame (黒枝豆), ginger, turnip, daikon radish, and sweet potato.
During the fair, dishes that bring out the character of these seasonal JA Tanba Hikami ingredients are served alongside Hyogo-produced agricultural and livestock products, including Kobe beef.

About Kobe Plaisir Honten
Kobe Plaisir Honten opened in Sannomiya, Kobe, in 2008 as a restaurant directly operated by JA Zen-Noh Hyogo. It uses seasonal Hyogo ingredients throughout the year, including Kobe beef, seasonal vegetables, and rice raised by producers in the prefecture.
The menu offers a range of dishes that make the most of Hyogo ingredients, including teppanyaki grilled right in front of guests, seiro-mushi (bamboo steamer) dishes featuring seasonal vegetables, and shabu-shabu enjoyed with kombu dashi broth.
The restaurant also works with JAs across the prefecture, drawing on the JA network to plan monthly-changing special menus that use seasonal vegetables and rice, and shares the appeal of Hyogo-produced agricultural and livestock products through food.
