They bring you fresh seasonal vegetables.
Kokui FarmWe strive every day to produce safe, high-quality produce, and are particular about "delicious."

What's more, we offer tofu, natto, miso, soy milk, and more made exclusively with soybeans grown in Okui!
They will sell it to you.
It's getting cold and I'm starting to crave hot pot.

FishmongerThey bring you fresh fish.
In fact, it can be quite difficult to buy fish at Takakaen.
Even if the owner buys products labeled as wild, they won't eat them because "they smell like farmed feed."
When I was worried because I couldn't tell just by looking at it, a neighbor introduced me to
This fish shop.
My neighbors came from Sendai and had a hard time trying the fish here.
Apparently they met and were introduced to this fishmonger.
Since then, it has become easier for me to choose fish.

You enter through the garden and receive a massage in a slightly secluded space.
