・We promote the utilization of local products including vegetables produced in the city.
・We strive to use seasonal foods so that you can feel the sense of the season.
・Consideration is given to the number of cooked rice and the use of fish, vegetables, beans, seaweed, etc. so that we can promote Japanese-style eating habits, reduce fat intake, and secure nutrients such as dietary fiber and iron that tend to be insufficient. .
