Rantei - Bibian

A renowned Japanese restaurant in Fukushima, where you can savor courses filled with seasonal ingredients and presentations.

Last update :

Situated just about 10 minutes by car from the central part of Koriyama City, in a quiet residential area, stands "Rantei - Bibian". This Japanese culinary gem is run by a master chef born into a lineage of chefs and honed his skills at the esteemed "Gion Kawakami" in Kyoto.

The dishes, made from locally sourced ingredients and handpicked seasonal produce from all over the country, are not only served in tableware that lets diners feel the season, but are also unique, reflecting the master chef's sense of aesthetics and playful creativity. Paired with these meals is a rich selection of local sake from Fukushima, a region known for its rice, ensuring a harmonious match.

Both lunch and dinner menus offer monthly rotating courses. In the evenings, based on the ingredients sourced for the day and the preferences of guests, there's also an "Omakase Course" - where the chef personally selects and crafts special dishes just for that day.

The restaurant's interior is a serene space, primarily comprising private rooms perfect for business meetings or celebrations. It's also recommended to enjoy the chef's witty conversation and masterful culinary performance from the counter seats.
