Outdoor Dining Experience in Aomori | EAT! MEET! JAPAN

While Aomori is famous for its apple production, its most delicious varieties are hyper-local. Grown only in independently-run orchards, these craft apples can only be sold commercially or transported for a short distance. The only way to bite into one is to head north!

This three-hour dining experience starts with picking your dessert. Guests will walk around the orchard to pick apples they'll later have to round out their meal. Then, settle down for a hearty dinner. Eat under the illuminated apples as the autumn sun sets; the ripe fruit will glow, mimicking the ambience of floating lanterns in a Japanese izakaya. The menu includes Ishiura wagyu raised in Goshogawa City with an optional add-on to try domestically raised horse meat from the city's Kanagi district. Fresh local vegetables from nearby farms and hand-harvested apples in the form of ciders and juices complete the meal.

Spend time with loved ones under Aomori's apple trees ― it's all the fun of a summer picnic but with the cozy feelings of fall.
