Ryotei Tanakaya
The story of Tanakaya, including the story of ‘prominent Samurai’ Ryoma Sakamoto’s wife, Oryo, who worked at the Tanakaya as one of the attendants, of an inn (called Sakuraya in those days) depicted in Hiroshige’s The 53 Stations of the Tokaido, and of a restaurant that Townsend Harris loved so much, is truly applicable to the history of Yokohama, the first opening port city to the world. For travel designers, the story of Tanakaya will provide a lot of great hints for planning any itineraries in Yokohama.
From the perspective of a history as a Geisha school, it is possible to discuss an experience of spending time in Yokohama with a Geisha, or a special historical talk by Okami-san in private etc, you have many factors that can be easily incorporated into luxury travel contents in Japan historically.
Above all, the fact that Oryo, who would become Ryoma Sakamoto’s wife, worked as an attendant after Ryoma Sakamoto’s assassination, is sure to capture the hearts of Ryoma fans who visit here.
The cuisine changes on a seasonally basis, but the menu, which includes not only Kaiseki meals but also Shabu-Shabu (Japanese black beef) and other dishes, is sure to be very popular with foreign travelers to Japan. For family trips, which have increased during the post-pandemic, it is nice to know that the restaurant offers children’s menu as well.
