5 unique dining experiences in Asia - SilverKris

"A luxurious ryokan overlooking Nanao Bay on the Noto Peninsula that blends onsen comforts and all-inclusive seasonal kaiseki with a strong local artisan identity. The property houses a museum-style collection of more than 300 lacquerware pieces by the late artisan Kado Isaburo, and many matcha and kaiseki dishes are presented in bespoke Wajima lacquerware inspired by his work. The seasonal menu emphasizes local seafood and foraged ingredients, with examples such as burdock root, an icefish-and-egg soup served in a delicate porcelain cup, and grilled blackthroat sea perch presented on a hand-carved wooden plate." - Claire Knox and Karen Fong
