Dinner is at the French restaurant okas.
The French restaurant “okas” is famous for the best dinner in Yakushima, and you can enjoy a course menu that focuses on the ingredients produced in Yakushima.
The main course is highly recommended.
The loin of black beef from Nakayama, Kagoshima Prefecture, was tender and had a wonderful lean flavor.
It is good to eat it with just the sauce, but a little homemade yuzu kosho (Japanese citrus pepper) served on the top left will give it a spicy kick.
Accompanying the dish were Brussels sprouts, carrots, romanesco and ravioli from Yakushima.
The spinach ravioli is filled with beef tail meat.
In addition to the intricate attention to detail, each vegetable is packed with the flavor of its ingredients.
