Hitsujiya is located in Murayama City, Yamagata Prefecture, where you can enjoy 100% home-raised Suffolk mutton Jingisukan. The meat has no smell at all, and the tender meat with just the right amount of fat on it has a taste that can only be experienced here.
The restaurant is so popular that it has been awarded two Michelin stars and has been featured on television. The emphasis is on cooking and eating life in its natural habitat of mountains and oceans. The restaurant has a modern atmosphere, decorated with the bones of the wild boar that the owner himself caught. The restaurant is located in the middle of a private house with many rice paddies, offering a peaceful view. The sign "Uozen" and the fact that you have to take off your shoes like in a kappo-ryouriya (Japanese cooking restaurant) give this popular restaurant an unusual appearance for a French restaurant.
