boarding wave
The first one I would like to introduce is "Tokiwa ", which is famous for its Yonezawa beef. As mentioned at the beginning of this article, Yonezawa beef is a brand of beef that represents Yamagata Prefecture and is sure to please the palates of a wide range of people, from tourists to locals. As a Japanese, you should definitely try Yonezawa Beef, which is one of the three Japanese beef brands, ranking alongside Kobe Beef and Matsuzaka Beef. It is a luxurious and luxurious product. The meat is also extremely fatty, with just the right amount of marbling, and is a sight to behold, with the fine fat melting off the moment it enters the tongue. When you visit Yamagata Prefecture, please enjoy Yonezawa beef first.
Japan's top-class quality meat is superb!
Yonezawa beef, which represents Yamagata, and by extension, Japan, is an absolute must-try. Especially at this restaurant, you can enjoy it in various ways, such as steak, shabu-shabu, and sukiyaki. Yonezawa beef, with its abundance of high-quality fat and soft texture in your mouth, will show its presence without regret in any recipe. Professionally cooked to lock in the flavor and fat, it is juicy and satisfying, and gives the meat its natural sweetness. Although it is a bit pricey, it is a must-try when visiting Yamagata Prefecture. It is a must-try for those who work hard every day.

Hirata Ranch, Ton-ya
We introduced Yonezawa beef earlier as the male beef, but Sangen pork cannot be forgotten. This is also a brand-name pork that represents Yamagata Prefecture, and along with Yonezawa beef, it is a local delicacy that seems to represent Yamagata Prefecture. This pork is richer than beef, but has a sweeter texture, giving a completely different impression. It may be a good idea to compare both beef and pork and enjoy the charm of each.
The sweet, melt-in-your-mouth pork cutlets are a must!
The biggest selling point of this restaurant is the tonkatsu set meal using pork loin. Earlier, I mentioned the attraction of the pork, which is sweet and has a light pinkish color with a high quality fat content. The batter on the outside is crispy and crunchy. The more you bite into it, the more the pork's flavor and sweetness jumps out from the inside and mixes together on your tongue. It is a perfect dish because of the high-temperature oil used to lock in the flavor. This restaurant is also a representative of Yamagata Prefecture and a must-visit.

Kenchan Ramen serves up a hearty, stamina-packed bowl of ramen that can be described as "Yamagata's version of Jiro ( "). It is a perfect place for men.
A hearty bowl of ramen in Yamagata, a ramen powerhouse!
The Chinese noodles served at this restaurant have a great impact on both appearance and eating. Even though you ordered a regular size bowl, the medium-thick noodles, pork chashu pork, and a pile of grated garlic that are served over the bowl are truly overwhelming. The impact is truly overwhelming. When you slurp down a bowl of noodles, you can feel the delicious flavor and literally become addicted to it. The various ingredients and the deep broth make it possible to enjoy the dish all the way through to the end without getting bored. We recommend that you visit the restaurant as early as possible, as there is often a long line.

It has an old-fashioned atmosphere that is extremely comfortable, and is also a recommended place to enjoy Yamagata's local cuisine.
A wide selection of fresh seafood! The luxurious taste that can only be enjoyed here!
The centerpiece of this restaurant is a very luxurious sashimi dish. As mentioned above, Yamagata Prefecture, which faces the Sea of Japan, is able to land fresh seafood, and this gorgeous dish makes full use of that advantage. The chef's craftsmanship in using only the freshest and most seasonal ingredients can be felt in this dish, which is truly the ultimate in luxury. The fish is arranged in a grand manner, giving the dish a strong sense of presence, and it also offers excellent value for money. Why not try the fresh taste that you can only get here?

Mogamigawa Senbon Dango
This is the first sweet store we will introduce in this article. This store is a representative of Yamagata Prefecture's sweets stores and has a very successful name. A search of the site will bring up photos of the food and the exterior, which shows the popularity of the shop.
Dumplings filled with sweets are a fusion of Japanese and Western styles!
The signature item on the menu is a sweet dumpling that is a mix of Japanese and Western sweets. The chewy dumplings have a very pleasant texture and can be said to be a traditional Japanese snack, but the seasonal sweets and sweet cream that are boldly placed on top of the dumplings are very impressive. Since the base is a Japanese-style dumpling, it is easier to eat than Western sweets such as cakes because it is not too sweet, but at the same time, it is very popular among young people because it has a strong high-carat flavor. It is truly a fun gourmet food that combines the best of both worlds.
