“Gora Kadan” opened “Sushi Kadan” on November 4, 2023

HAKONE, Japan–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Since its establishment in 1952, Gora Kadan has instilled itself as a favorite destination among guests from both Japan and overseas, including celebrities and government dignitaries. Gora Kadan is proud to announce the opening of Sushi Kadan on November 4, 2023, under the supervision of Sushi Yoshitake, the famed Ginza restaurant and recipient of three Michelin stars for 12 consecutive years.

At the beautiful unvarnished wooden counter nestled within the former Kan’in-no-miya Villa, which has been a part of the changing seasons of Hakone for many long years, sushi chef Masahiro Yoshitake says, “as a sushi craftsman fascinated by the profoundness of sushi, an integral part of Japanese cultural cuisine, I work to hone my craft daily, which stems from my desire to communicate the ‘oneness of the world of nigirizushi’” as he serves his omakase course infused with this wish. The beautiful course is comprised of 17 items starting with an appetizer. In addition to locally-brewed Kanagawa sake, champagne and wine from around the world are also served to pair deliciously with sushi.

Gora Kadan

This traditional Japanese restaurant and inn is nestled in the beautiful natural surroundings of Hakone. It was originally built in the Edo period as a villa for the Kan’in-no-miya, one of the four imperial households, and opened for business in 1952. The modern architecture provides a spacious and free sense of nature, and it stands on a property that stretches across approximately four acres of land proudly displaying the beauty of the seasons year-round. In 1991, it underwent the elite selection process and became of a member of the luxury hotel and restaurant group, Relais & Châteaux. In 2002, they received the prestigious Relais & Châteaux Welcome Trophy awarded to one facility among the 469 member facilities (at the time) with a high level of customer satisfaction and that provides a high level of customer service. It is highly acclaimed by distinguished guests from both Japan and overseas.

Sushi Yoshitake

First opened in Ginza in 2010, this popular restaurant has been awarded three stars by the Tokyo Michelin Guide for 12 consecutive years. The uncompromising flavor of the Edo-style sushi crafted by master chef and owner Masahiro Yoshitake is highly acclaimed within Japan and overseas. His Sushi Shikon restaurant opened in Hong Kong in 2013 has received three stars from the Hong Kong & Macau Michelin Guide for nine years running.

The sushi, crafted with novel sensibilities while at the same time preserving tradition, is the ultimate in sophistication combining wasabi, special vinegared rice evolved from “akasu” red vinegar passed down from the Edo period and toppings made from the freshest quality ingredients from around the country expertly prepared with masterful technique. The ever-evolving Edo-style nigirizushi continues to attract gastronomists from all over the world.
