Microgreens: A small amount of food that packs in a lot of nutrition
">
Microgreens are young vegetables that have been sprouting for about 1 to 3 weeks. They are small vegetables less than 5 cm in size, but they are said to contain five times the nutrients of mature vegetables, such as vitamin C, vitamin K, vitamin E, lutein, and carotenoids.
The taste of these microgreens is less bitter and harsh than that of fully grown vegetables, and their aroma and flavor are delicate and rich. Miyamoto-san told us, "At OTM, we use 20 different kinds of microgreens. Each type has its own unique flavor."
To make the most of the appeal of these microgreens, they researched how to combine them with various ingredients. As a result of their careful study, they have created a variety of dishes that can only be enjoyed here at "OTM Restaurant."
An impactful menu that can be enjoyed with all five senses
">
Menus using microgreens can be enjoyed in a wide variety of ways. From light meals such as pasta sets and sandwiches to our specialty Basque cheesecake. Menus that use microgreens lavishly feature a vibrant green color that stimulates both the eyes and the taste buds.
Among the many dishes on the menu, the signature course menu "PREFIX OTM PLATE" is particularly eye-catching.
The highlight of the course is the impressive "OTM TRAY." It is covered with four types of microgreens, on which three seasonal appetizers, a choice of main dish, and pasta are served right in front of you.

In addition to the "OTM TRAY", the course includes soup of the day, an aperitif (alcoholic or non-alcoholic), handmade three-color bread, and a set drink. It is a very satisfying course packed with attention to detail.
A space where you can feel the gap
The visual aspect of the menu is characterized by its rich color, using not only the vibrant green of microgreens, but also the natural colors of tomatoes, peppers, and other ingredients to create a colorful finish.
And in order to make the colors stand out even more, the restaurant space itself has been deliberately designed to be inorganic.
The exposed concrete walls and exposed ceiling that doesn't hide the pipes are unified in a cold, linear design that somehow evokes the near future.
The seating is limited to a straight counter, which also conveys an impersonal feel, and one of OTM's charms is being able to enjoy the quality of the design.
Ice cream that can be eaten like a salad
OTM's menu is not limited to meals, they also have a wide selection of desserts. The most recommended item is "OTM ICE CREAM".
This is an experiential menu where you choose your favorite type, base, and microgreen flavor and mix them into ice cream on the spot. The concept is to transform ice cream from an immoral confection to a moral delight.
This ice cream is packed with nutrition from microgreens, and is flavorful and guilt-free, so you can enjoy it as a takeaway.
Our hotel has started offering a new plan where you can enjoy OTM ICE CREAM. You can enjoy the refreshing flavor of ice cream in the comfort of your room, perfect for the heat of summer.
