At Tsubaki (海石榴), a ryotei-style ryokan in Okuyugawara Onsen in Yugawara, Kanagawa Prefecture, a gourmet stay plan is available for winter only. It brings together flavors that are best enjoyed in the cold season, including a hot pot made with anko (monkfish), a familiar winter delicacy, and takikomi gohan (rice cooked with seasonal ingredients) made with crab, kue (longtooth grouper), and ikura (salmon roe).
The ryokan sits in a quiet mountain setting, where guests can spend a relaxing winter stay with seasonal ingredients.
Two Upgrades From the Regular Meal
The plan upgrades two items from the regular meal content.
- The shiizakana (hearty dish) course is upgraded to "anko hot pot"
- The white rice is upgraded to "takikomi gohan with crab, kue, and ikura"
Anko is a flavorful seasonal fish, and a hot pot made with it is a taste of the cold winter months. The rice is cooked with kue, a rare premium fish, and scattered with crab and ikura, adding color to the winter table.

Dining in the Guest Room
Meals can be enjoyed in the guest room. Surrounded by the nature of Okuyugawara in a quiet space, guests can take their time with the seasonal dishes without worrying about those around them, with seasonal decor throughout the ryokan.
