The Commercial Promotion Center (inside the Ritsurin Park), where the Garden Cafe Ritsurin is located, was constructed as the Kagawa Prefecture museum in 1899. Inside this purely Japanese style building, you can enjoy creative Italian food adapted for locally produced ingredients. All ingredients are safe, procured directly from trustworthy producers. The chef gives special attention all the way to the sauces and deserts. The Garden Cafe Ritsurin Lunch is highly recommended, consisting of a daily main dish, high nutrition ‘ancient rice’ (*Ancient rice is a variety of rice that has been cultivated since ancient times) – these have a reputation for being delicious.
