Dinner as the sun sets into the horizon — St.ELMO, Ishigaki

Ishigaki Beef & Sunset Dinner

We will probably remember
this night for a long time.

Ishigaki beef steak, and an eight-course menu timed to the sunset.

Steak from JPY 9,800|Full course JPY 19,800

01 — Concept

Ishigaki beef steak,
or eight plates.

Two ways to spend the hour the sun goes down.

One is the Ishigaki beef steak — sirloin or fillet, served on a single plate with bisque soup and rice or bread. The other is chef Kiyota's eight-course menu, tracing a day on Ishigaki. For an anniversary, most guests choose the course.

03 — Course

French Full Course

8 courses | JPY 19,800 (incl. tax) | reserved by the previous day

Both the ingredients and the treatment depend on what arrives that day. No two sets of eight plates are ever the same.

  1. The sea in the early morning, before anyone is out. A clear first mouthful opens the island's day.

  2. Another island appears beyond the horizon. The lift of a journey beginning, in a single bite.

  3. Where two currents meet, the fish gather. What comes from the sea meets what comes from the land, here on the plate.

  4. The sound of waves coming and going. The scent of the shoreline opens slowly in the mouth.

  5. Midday light falling straight down. The hour when both colour and flavour come through strongest.

  6. The wind drops and the sea turns to glass. From here, the flavours deepen quietly.

  7. The centre of the course. French technique laid over what the island has grown — a flavour that exists only here.

  8. The sky stays light after the sun has gone. A gentle sweetness to close the evening.

In the kitchen is Seishi Kiyota, a Michelin-starred chef. That craft now works for the ingredients of Ishigaki.
