Before you arrive, read the five sections numbered 01 to 05.

We change the hanging scroll on the first of each month. That completes one part of the month's editing. No two issues carry the same contents.
So we count the inn in issues — April, October, and so on. Readers stay in the edition for their month.

The inn is a two-storey wooden house. Its creaking stairs deserve a mention on the rooms page.

The menu draws on what the Hida mountains give and what the river gives. We listed the ingredients and counted over a hundred for one month. They took up a good deal of space.
Take the menu card home; some readers cook from it. If it reaches a kitchen, the editing has earned its keep.



Snow covers January, blossom April, maple October. The furnishings change on the first too, entrance included.
One photograph is added each month. Laid out together, they became a year at the inn.
