A Southern French Weekend Brunch — Savor the Glow of Sunlit Indulgence

Inspired by the rich culinary traditions of the Mediterranean, this exclusive menu artfully blends the finest local ingredients from Kyushu with premium European delicacies. Indulge in the deep, savory richness of moules marinières, the aromatic allure of seafood curry with saffron rice, and perfectly grilled lamb chops, complemented by the delicate sweetness of a classic clafoutis. Every dish—featuring thoughtfully selected ingredients like artichokes and mackerel—takes you on a vibrant journey of flavor.

Flavors of Kyushu
A gastronomic कथा that captures the climate and culture of Kyushu through seven distinct expressions.
The journey begins with an amuse featuring Yame tea, followed by delicate oysters, seasonal mushrooms, and a fish course marinated in sake lees. Each ingredient is meticulously sourced from across Kyushu, reflecting both the dedication of its producers and the assurance of quality, thoughtfully expressed in every dish.
The bounty of the land is further elevated through time-honored fermentation techniques, deepening flavors and adding remarkable complexity. Highlights include the refined richness of Kagoshima’s prized Nozaki Wagyu, the lingering maritime elegance of Miyazaki caviar, and a graceful finale accented by vanilla from Nagasaki and tonka bean.
Together, these elements compose a quiet dialogue between Kyushu’s land, its people, and the changing seasons.
Chef Yamanaka’s “Journey Through the Flavors of Kyushu” is born from a profound respect for ingredients, trust in tradition, and a spirit of creativity. We warmly invite you to embark on this immersive culinary experience celebrating the rich food culture nurtured across this remarkable region.

Scent of Renewal — Floral Candle Workshop
To the beauty nearing the end of its journey, we offer light once more.
The seasonal floral arrangements that grace the lobby of The Ritz-Carlton, Fukuoka bring moments of fleeting beauty. As they pass their peak, they quietly conclude their role—until now. In this exclusive workshop, these blossoms are given new life,
transformed into one-of-a-kind candles. Each piece is a poetic expression of renewal, preserving beauty in a different form.
Presented in alignment with Marriott International’s sustainability platform, Serve 360, this experience thoughtfully blends
environmental consciousness with refined creativity. We are honored to welcome a candle artist and founder of the sustainable
brand KOSelig JAPAN. With a background in environmental studies, the artist creates “non-discardable candles” — pieces designed with longevity and intention.
The gentle glow of each candle offers a moment of quiet reflection, resonating deeply with the senses. The act of crafting your own candle becomes a meaningful ritual—whether as a personal keepsake or as a gift for someone dear. In every flame, a delicate story begins to unfold.
