Asahidake Onsen, the long-established inn ``Wakukomaso'' is run by the Secret Hot Springs Protection Association. I booked a twin room in the newly renovated main building. The main selling point is that there are 5 hot spring baths, but the equipment is old and doesn't look clean, so I didn't feel like relaxing in either the open-air bath or the indoor bath. Dinner is a creative dish called ``Yushokuzen.'' I was a bit surprised when Vichyssoise suddenly appeared in a hollowed-out Yubari melon bowl! The taste of appetizer and sashimi is not bad. However, the next croquette from Inca's Awakening came out in a bag and there was no plate so I had to eat it with my hands. Next was spring water jelly and tomatoes simmered in white wine. I don't think there is a course setting here where things like water sweets continue. Isn't sweet tomato compote good after a meal? The main dish is Kuroge Wagyu beef soup shabu-shabu, and the soup stock and beef go well together. The final sweet treat is a jar of white coffee pudding! It came out. For breakfast, the restaurant recommended ``rice with smoked soy sauce,'' so I tried it, but the soy sauce was too sweet and didn't suit my taste. The room is clean and looks modern at first glance, but when you sit on the sofa against the wall, you can't see the TV at all. The bed was uncomfortable with a squishy soft urethane mat. I had high expectations as it seemed to be a popular inn, but I was left with a rather disappointing impression of the hot springs, food, and rooms.
