Kogei Dining is a special programme related to the exhibition Kogei 2020 – The Art of Crafting Beauty from Nature that’s taking place at the National Museum’s Hyokeikan until November 15. At two venues in Kanazawa and Atami, you can enjoy traditional meals served on artistic tableware.
The first Kogei Dining experience takes place on October 31 at Kinjohro, a long-established traditional restaurant set inside a ryokan (traditional Japanese inn) in Kanazawa, while the second dinner will be held on December 4 at the MOA Museum of Art in Atami. You can get a taste of the traditional cuisine of the Kaga region at the Kanazawa venue (¥20,000 per person), while the Atami location serves a multi-course fusion meal with French cuisine by Toshihiko Yoroizuka and Japanese delicacies created by the head chef at the MOA Museum of Art’s restaurant Hana no Chaya (¥30,000 per person). Both meals come with sake.
Guest speakers will also be giving talks during the event. The meal prices include free tickets to either the National Crafts Museum in Kanazawa, set to open on October 25, or the MOA Museum of Art.
