Отель «Kobe Kitano Hotel»

In Kobe- the most cosmopolitan of Japanese cities- various foreigners who settled here from the 19th century onwards built residences in the style of their distant homelands- the -ijinkan- in the chic district of Kitano. French lifestyle is very much in evidence here in the fine red-brick building with a courtyard and interior garden- elegant decor and- above all- the cuisine of Hiroshi Yamaguchi skilled in the art of sublime dishes. On the menu- the famous fugu and its soft roe in crunchy potatoes- caramelised salsifies and vegetable jus or the incomparable Kobe beef in a salt crust.
