Terrace Restaurant 海の星 (Umi no Hoshi) Etoile de la mer
Overlooking the blue Inland Sea, 海の星 Etoile de la mer offers fine cuisine replete with simple, natural flavors. Since we use the freshest ingredients typical of the Inland Sea and Shikoku, our menu changes daily. Tateru Yoshino, owner of the French restaurant STELLA MARIS, was invited to serve as an advisor to Terrace Restaurant beginning in April 2010.
