Guided sake & seasonal ingredient cuisine pairing with Sendai Izawa family head
Pairing dinner guided by restaurant owner
A pairing dinner will be held by restaurant owner Yuka Izawa at Restaurant Shozan, owned by Sendai Izawaya Katsuyama Sake Brewery, one of Sendai’s leading sake breweries. In a private space created by renovating a sake brewery in the old castle town, Izawa herself will give a guided tour of the restaurant’s unique pairings and sake in Japanese, English, or Chinese. Enjoy a variety of unpasteurized sake that is hard to find on the market, as well as a special menu created just for this tour to enhance the flavor of the sake. Before the meal, a tour of the sake brewery selected by Izawa will be conducted by the brewer at a brewery in or near Sendai city. Lunch and a city tour by Skytop Bus as a means of transportation are available as options upon request.
