"Chef Yoshihiro Narisawa channels Japan’s satoyama — the rural landscapes where humans live in harmony with nature — into an experience that’s quietly profound. His “innovative satoyama cuisine” draws on traditional crafts like lacquerware and washi paper, creating a meal that feels meditative, seasonal, and deeply respectful of place. Much like the film, dining here is about finding connection in quiet, beautifully composed moments. You’ll leave full, but also a little lighter on your feet — as if the world makes slightly more sense." - Rooksana Hossenally
