HAOSTAY Kitchen Yoshida
Concept
Step through the wooden sliding door and time rewinds to Japan's Showa era. A faded corrugated-iron sign, a row of Asahi lanterns, an old-fashioned gashapon machine, and a vintage bicycle set the tone for an unpretentious Showa-style diner. Inside, warm bare bulbs and handmade paper goldfish lanterns sway overhead, framed by corrugated tin walls, vintage posters, and weathered curios. Leather-trimmed chairs paired with solid wood tables give the space a grounded, nostalgic warmth — as if stepping into an old shop with a story to tell.
Menu Highlights
The menu centers on the comfort foods every Japanese person grows up with — ramen, rice bowls, curry rice, and gyoza. Signature dishes include the Extra Chashu Ramen, the daily-limited Deluxe Tempura Rice Bowl, and Tonkatsu Curry Rice, alongside drink-friendly small plates like karaage and Japanese rolled omelet, plus draft beer.
Location

Fuji pilgrimage culture and textile weaving, makes a natural stop for travelers arriving from Tokyo, Kawaguchiko, or Yamanakako, offering a glimpse into everyday life at the foot of Mt. Fuji.
