Chiyohime-sou Cottage is located on the river side of the Oochise. The facility offers you a trip down memory lane with the nostalgia it invokes. You will enjoy the traditional dishes of Toei, such as Shioyaki Ayu fish, Gohei mochi (flat rice balls stuck on a wooden stick and barbecues and dipped in a thick miso sauce), and skewered potatos, which have been cooked over a fire. The nostalgic smell and the smell of the charcoal fire will bring you an ecstatic feeling that the city cannot replicate. We serve you freshly picked organic vegetables that are harvested each season.
