竹風堂 松本中町店 — Restaurant in Matsumoto

For those looking for a lunch to enjoy local cuisine in Matsumoto, I highly recommend "Yamaga Teishoku" at the restaurant inside the chestnut confectionery shop "Chikuhodo" on Nakamachi Street in Matsumoto.

The dishes served in the clean and comfortable restaurant with a view of the beautiful courtyard are exceptional.

"Yamaga Teishoku" consists of:

Kuri-okowa (steamed rice with chestnuts) made with carefully selected domestic ingredients and no artificial coloring, with a gentle flavor.

Nijimasu Amagaki-ni (sweet simmered rainbow trout), a dish where you can eat everything except the eyeballs, is a masterpiece that makes you feel the arrival of spring.

Sansai Nimono (simmered mountain vegetables) that reminds you of spring,

Mukago no Kurumi Miso-ae (stir-fried lily bulbs with walnuts and miso), and

Ringo Juice (apple juice) made from Nagano-grown apples.

It is a truly satisfying meal that allows you to enjoy the local cuisine of Nagano.
