Sansai Cuisine Mitakien

When I watched "Little Forest" before, I was very envious of life in the countryside of Japan🍃. There is no prosperity and bustling tourists of big cities, but there are healing scenery in Hayao Miyazaki's animations🏞. This mountain restaurant 🍴 located in Yazu County, Tottori Prefecture, Japan, gave me the feeling of "Little Forest". To dine at "Mitaki Garden", you first have to go to a deep mountain⛰. Just like the scenery that Shizi passed by when he rode his bike into the mountains in the movie, when we entered the mountains, the clean air, gurgling water, and melodious bird songs made us feel like we had accidentally entered a paradise. The thatched house at the entrance has a very traditional Japanese feel, like a house that only appears in a storybook. There are chickens walking leisurely on the ground, looking very happy... There is also an old waterwheel that seems to be still working, which is very nostalgic. ⭐️ Mitaki Garden offers no-menu cuisine featuring mountain vegetables, and reservations must be made in advance. There are three set menus: Hinoki: 5500 yen; Cedar: 3700 yen; Bamboo: 2500 yen ⭐️ There is also a cafe in the mountains called "Cafe Quince". After dinner, take a walk in the mountains 🚶‍♀️, and go to the mountain cabin to have a cup of iced coffee ☕️. It’s really a heavenly life. I don’t want to leave at all!
