Three major restaurants offer limited edition spring dishes

TERRACE & DINING SORA: Seasonal Ingredients for Western Cuisine

Terrace & Dining Sora, located in the Zuikan, is a buffet restaurant specializing in Western cuisine, and is only available to guests staying at the Zuikan. The elegant environment of the restaurant provides exquisite cuisine and comfortable dining atmosphere.

Spring menu highlights include "Seasonal Vegetables and Pork Filet Pan Roasted with Caramelized Cream Sauce". The dish combines the natural sweetness of spring vegetables with the richness of pork, and is paired with a flavorful caramelized cream sauce to create a richly layered entrée.

You can also enjoy the French appetizer "Koudi Chicken French Cold Pie" made with Oita's brand chicken "Koudi Chicken", as well as the balsamic-flavored Chinese Fried Chicken, which is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Those who prefer Japanese cuisine can also try the delicate "Unagi Kobayashi", which is small, cute and luxurious.

Wafu Restaurant Star: Japanese Cuisine with a Spring Feeling

Located on the top floor of the Hoshikan, Wafu Restaurant Hoshi is the closest buffet restaurant to the sky at the Suginoi Hotel, specializing in Japanese cuisine. Part of the restaurant is equipped with a skylight, making it a cozy place to dine in an open space.

One of the recommended spring dishes is "Kakeira Sushi", which is made of vinegared rice with ingredients such as cherry blossom petals, canola flowers and salmon eggs, giving it a colorful appearance like a spring garden, and allowing people to feel the breath of spring from both the taste and the sight.

There are also bonito and shrimp dishes grilled on straw, with a light smoky aroma, and salt-grilled mackerel stewed in garlic olive oil and Spanish garlic with haricots verts, which are full of flavor and perfect for pairing with wine.

Cedar Palace World Restaurant: Seafood and Mediterranean Cuisine

Cedar Palace World Restaurant at Suginoi Palace is a buffet restaurant for all ages. A large round aquarium in the center of the restaurant creates a dining atmosphere that feels like you are in an ocean world.

The spring appetizer section features a Mediterranean bar-style theme with colorful dishes such as "Strawberry Camembert Cheese Salad," "Seafood Cappaccio," and "Bacon and Quail Egg Salad Pie."

One of the most recommended entrees is the "Silver Salmon and Shrimp French Pizza Bread". The chef wraps silver salmon, shrimp and shiso leaves in a crispy crust and bakes them, resulting in a crispy outer layer and a filling full of seafood flavor, which is then served with a white wine sauce for a taste of elegance.

For dessert, the restaurant offers a limited edition of almond desserts for spring, including the cherry blossom-scented Sakura Almond Bean Curd from March to April, and the colorful Dragon Fruit Almond Bean Curd in May, which has a smooth, sweet texture without being greasy.

The perfect dinner experience after a hot spring bath

One of the most charming travel experiences at Hotel Suginoi is to relax at the Beppu Onsen and then enjoy a limited spring menu at the buffet restaurant. Travelers can enjoy a pleasant dinner with family or friends in the gentle spring breeze and the afterglow of the hot spring.

The limited spring menu is expected to be available until May 31, 2026, but may still be adjusted due to availability of ingredients. It is worth noting that alcoholic beverages are also included in the cost of the dinner, allowing travelers to enjoy the resort atmosphere with greater ease.
