Chef's Introduction Chef Yoshihiro Kitada

Hakodate is surrounded on three sides by the sea, with warm currents from the Sea of Japan and cold currents from the Pacific Ocean flowing into the city, making it blessed with seafood. It is also home to many agricultural products and dairy products nurtured in the rich land of Hokkaido.
We hope you will experience Hakodate and Hokkaido through your taste buds as well, and have prepared buffet meals that utilize the finest ingredients.
We want our guests to enjoy not only the taste of the food, but also the atmosphere of the meal, so we cook sushi and teppanyaki right in front of our guests, allowing them to enjoy the food with their eyes first, and then serve it freshly prepared.
Our staff will do their utmost to make your stay with us the best possible time.
We hope you will enjoy your meal at Hakodate Yunokawa Hotel Masou.
