Supervised by Mr. Hisashi Suetomo, a young master chef who trained at the famous Japanese restaurant “Gion Maruyama” and was later selected as the first head chef of “Gion Hanakasumi”. In 2009, he opened Gion Suetomo, attracting people with dishes that express Kyoto’s elegant four seasons. His philosophy is to “provide the best possible service while cherishing the spirit of hospitality.” designed by myself. While cherishing Kyoto culture in areas other than cooking, such as purifying the entrance with water sprinkled every day and expressing the season with the decorations on the alcove, he thoroughly adheres to his own view of the world.

This time, we would like to introduce 15 kinds of ankake Kyoto rice that Mr. Suetomo supervised for our customers. Ankake is a dish that has been popular in Kyoto since ancient times, and is served in a wide range of places, from local Chinese restaurants to Japanese
restaurants. Mr. Suetomo, who has spent many years studying
Kyoto-style cuisine at Gion’s traditional restaurants, has made it even more elegant and attractive. For 12 months, we will deliver a total of 4 meal sets that combine seasonal flavors and standard flavors every month with bean paste suitable for each type of rice.
Delicious bean paste and deep rice that can be enjoyed together or separately [Image 4
First of all, please enjoy the rice with flavorful ingredients as it is. When you’ve eaten about half of it, pour the bean paste over it. You will be amazed at the new deliciousness created by mixing rice and bean paste. It is also recommended to eat the anko with meat, fish, vegetables, etc., prepared separately. Please try with a menu that goes well with each bean paste.
It’s also nice that it’s easy to cook, just put the bean paste in a hot water bath and heat the rice in the microwave. You can fully enjoy the taste of Gion’s elegant restaurant at home whenever you like.

■ About Light Up Shopping Club
In 1971, it started as a record mail order company “CBS/Sony Family Club”. It began to handle imported miscellaneous goods, household goods, and clothing from the United States and Europe, and in 1983 opened a directly managed store in Ginza. We were among the first to introduce a multi-channel style that links mail-order sales and physical stores, and as a pioneer of mail-order sales, we have continued to pursue entertainment-rich shopping. Currently, we are developing our business centered on three pillars: “print media” such as catalogs and direct mail, “directly managed stores”, and “online stores”. Rather than being swayed by temporary fads, we place great importance on delivering products with a narrative, such as products of the highest quality, products that will be loved for a long time, new products that have never been seen before, and original products that differ from others.
