Iwaso is not exactly an inexpensive place to stay. Not that it isn’t worth it; I’d gladly pay more. Part of the reason is the many courses of a fabulous dinner served right in your room. From what I could see online, the food looked like fish, fish, and more fish. I’m not a big fan of fish. So I asked for something a little different. They delivered. My main course was sukiyaki.

Today’s photo was of one of the appetizers. Fish was included, and it was good.
