Hot spring home away from home
Tateshina Hiiragi is a new style of hot spring inn recently opened on July 18 in Nagano Prefecture's Tateshina area. Tateshina Hiiragi has created a space where adults can escape the hustle and bustle of the city and relax as if they are in a home away from home.
Hiiragi's teppanyaki, or iron-grill, dining restaurant offers an incredible gastronomy experience using fresh ingredients native to the area. For example, basic kaiseki, or traditional Japanese cuisine, menus include steak from Nagano Pref., Hiiragi's original venison bouillabaisse that contains plenty of seasonal vegetables and hot peppers, and bagna cauda, or hot dip, that comes with fresh summer vegetables as well as many other tantalizing dishes.
