Experience Details

Feast on fugu (puffer fish) at a private dining experience in Niseko! Renowned culinary maestro, Chef Tanaka-San, returns with a fully-fugu course menu. Only licensed and highly skilled chefs can prepare and serve fugu, Chef Tanaka-San included. Why? Fugu, also known as pufferfish, is a fascinating and infamous delicacy in Japanese cuisine (the allure of which lies in its highly toxic organs). Preparing fugu requires the utmost skill and expertise, as even the tiniest mistake could be promlematic. Every step of the fugu preparation process is conducted with precision and care. The fish must be meticulously cleaned while preserving its delicate flavor and texture. This adventurous meal is one to boast about for years to come.

Yet, Niseko's allure extends far beyond the snowy season.

In summer, the region transforms into a lush green paradise, offering fantastic opportunities for hiking, mountain biking, and exploring the pristine wilderness.

A former instructor at the revered Tsuji Culinary Institute and television personality, Chef Tanaka-San has done it all and continues to do so with gusto. He is renowned for merging traditional and modern Japanese cuisine and does so with pride.
