Goten Club in Akabira City !


by Kazu

This wooden house was built by the coalmine Tycoon Mr. Yamada in the era when the coalmine industry was in full flourish.
The high-quality cedars were carried from Akita prefectural area and used to build this house of luxury.
Now the house is used as a buckwheat noodle soup restaurant named "Goten Club" which means mansion club in Japanese. The original house was called "Yamada Goten".
 
The details of the construction and the exteriors are filled with the sign of wealth.
This is the border of the guestroom and the kitchen.
The round decorated window is as it was many years ago.
The table on the window side may be too cold for the tourists from the mainland of Japan but the scenery is so nice in summer and autumn.
As the inside is like somebody's  house, we can sit back and relax enough to savor the quality noodle enough.
 The capacity of the restaurant is not so huge, so the bulk tour can not use this restaurant, I think.
My wife loves this type of round window and wood deck.
 Only the spruce peculiar to Hokkaido can be seen from the window in winter. Everything is covered with white snow.

This meat is of domestic duck. I think wine or whisky fits it to a T as well as Japanese sake. It is 1,500 Japanese yen. Do you think it is reasonable ?
Please try it !
