Taste crab & shrimp at Belle Vue

At the steak and seafood restaurant ‘Belle Vue,’ where you can leisurely enjoy dinner while overlooking the night skiing slopes, we recommend the hearty ‘Seafood Platter’ (available for two or more people). The thick legs of the king crab provide a delightful sweetness, and the texture as it melts in your mouth is a true pleasure. The claws of the snow crab, being the part with the most active muscles, offer a firm and succulent texture. Additionally, the à la carte ‘Crab Cream Croquette with Abundant King Crab’ is another popular choice. As it is a reservation-based restaurant, you can enjoy your meal without worrying about waiting times.

The rare “Ibarabagani” . Only available during the year-end and New Year holidays or for a limited time.

The limited-time restaurant ‘Crescent Hall’ operates in a buffet style, featuring all-you-can-eat ‘Ibaragani’ as the main dish. Despite its appearance with spikes and bumps, Ibaragani has a firm and slightly chewy texture similar to shrimp, providing a satisfying bite. Its sweetness might even surpass that of Tarabagani. Additionally, it is considered a rare crab due to its lower catch volume compared to other crabs, earning it the title of a ‘dream crab’ in some regions. The chance to savor this ‘dream crab’, the ‘Ibaragani,’ is only available when Crescent Hall is open. We look forward to welcoming everyone.
