In the audience seats facing the opening, you can enjoy your meal while feeling the trees swaying in the wind and the sunlight filtering through the trees. The open kitchen has a single-plate cedar counter that enhances the charm of charcoal cooking, and uses copper-colored hoods and charcoal-filled mortar finishes.

In addition, the exterior was co-created with artist Gei Nakajima and local residents through a workshop to search for colors in the park and paint them with the colors they found.
