Based on a recipe discovered at the Kishu Tokugawa Clan’s burial temple, Choho-ji, we have reproduced cuisine once served to lords of the clan. Including delicacies such as cedar planked mackerel, chefs carefully recreate the historical cuisine to the utmost standard.

The first attempt in 400 years to recreate and experience the very same cuisine that was eaten by feudal lords.

Ingredients are from Wakayama and include no artificial seasonings.

For those who find banquet dishes too filling, we also offer mini banquet dishes, beautifully arranged on 8 different small plates.

At Shikinoaji Chihiro, an 8-minute walk from Wakayama Station, experience inspirational Japanese cuisine, which honors the four seasons and the spirit of hospitality.

The first floor has a tea room with a garden and tatami tables, as well as regular tables for casual dining. The second floor consists of private rooms designed under the theme of “Wa,” which expresses harmony and peace. The third floor has various rooms that can accommodate banquets of 20 to 100 people.
