From melt-in-your-mouth A5 Wagyu to whisper-fresh sushi and cozy izakaya plates, our Private Chef Niseko menus are crafted for warmth, comfort, and celebration — all without leaving your chalet.

Our chefs shape flavor using Hokkaido’s finest local ingredients, balancing indulgence and nourishment. Vegetarian, vegan, and kids’ menus are never an afterthought — they’re designed with the same care and creativity as every other course.

Why Hokkaido Ingredients Matter

Hokkaido’s ingredients define the soul of Niseko dining. From the umami depth of Hidaka kombu to the sweetness of Rankoshi rice, and the pristine flavor of uni, king crab, and scallops, every element reflects this region’s purity and craftsmanship.

Local Hokkaido ingredients — fresh from sea to table.

We honor seasonality — sourcing directly from trusted local producers — and pair our menus beautifully with premium sake or cool-climate wines for a truly complete dining experience.
