Surrounded by mountain ranges, Yamagata Prefecture is also home to many specialties benefiting from its rich natural environment, such as rice, local sake, and Yamagata beef, which are grown in delicious water. Truly a “treasure trove of food”! It is famous as the place where cherries are produced, with the highest production volume in Japan.In fact, in 2023, it ranked first in annual ramen spending (per household on eating out) for the second consecutive year, and the nostalgic soul food is now popular. However, there are still many hidden gourmet foods that continue to be loved. Furthermore, in recent years, the number of foreign tourists visiting Yamagata Prefecture has been increasing due to the presence of many tourist attractions such as hot springs, ski resorts, and mountain temples, making Yamagata Prefecture one of the prefectures that is attracting attention from overseas.
Therefore, at Yokohama Takashimaya, we offer gourmet food that uses Yamagata Prefecture’s most famous products, nostalgic “local gourmet food” that has been loved for a long time, and “arranged sweets” that incorporate local specialties into a modern style. , we will be holding the Safflower Yamagata Road Product and Tourism Exhibition from May 22nd (Wednesday) so that a wide range of generations can enjoy the charms of Yamagata Prefecture.
This time, to commemorate the 65th anniversary of the opening of Yokohama Takashimaya, we will have 21 limited edition items that can only be eaten at the venue, as well as crafts that convey Yamagata’s traditions to the present day, to liven up the venue.
