Sennoya
Sennoya is a store that opened in August 2023 and combines a restaurant with a shop that sells carefully selected products from producers. The store was opened because the owner wanted to open a store in Hokuto City, his hometown.
Sennoya sells miso, rice, and various other ingredients made with the utmost care by local producers. We want people to enjoy these local products. With that in mind, we have started offering lunch.
The lunch set is a Japanese set that includes rice, a main meat dish, salad, miso soup, and dessert. It also comes with a side dish that uses plenty of vegetables.
【Lunch】11:30～14:30 🍽️
Lunch set 1,500 yen

🐓Teriyaki Chicken
Juicy chicken and rich sauce. Enjoyed with chewy rice from the local brand Norin 48 rice. Miso soup with plenty of mushrooms and vegetables and dessert. A very satisfying lunch.
🐟Cold Swordfish Sauce
Fresh fish with plenty of vegetable sauce - a healthy menu is nice.
We recommend the homemade canelés.
The rich flavor and moist texture are GOOD!
