Hiramatsu’s seasonal Kyotamba Chestnut Fair arrives in Tokyo and Kyoto, centered on chestnut desserts and a one-night producer gala dinner.
The fair runs from November 1 through November 30, 2026, at five Hiramatsu restaurants in Tokyo, while Restaurant Hiramatsu Kodaiji in Kyoto will host its special dinner on November 6.
Featured desserts include Kyotamba Chestnut and Autumn Harvest at Maison Paul Bocuse, Kyotamba Chestnut Creme d’Ange at HRMTS STAGE, and Kyotamba Roasted Chestnut Mille-Feuille at Daikanyama ASO Celeste Nihonbashi. The Kyoto gala dinner costs ¥36,300 per person, including tax and service.
About the Kyotamba Chestnut Fair
The 2026 fair focuses on Kyotamba chestnuts, an autumn ingredient associated with the mountain-ringed town of Kyotamba in Kyoto Prefecture. The area’s temperature differences between day and night, morning fog, and clean water support a range of distinctive agricultural products, including black soybeans and large shimeji mushrooms.
Each Tokyo restaurant interprets the chestnut in its own style. The desserts combine the nut with seasonal ingredients such as apple, sweet potato, yuzu, fig, pear, maple, white truffle, and Kaga roasted green tea. This gives diners a chance to compare different pastry and dessert approaches during the same month.
