"Hotel Okura's Cantonese room on the 10th floor of Sogo Yokohama plates shark's-fin soup and Peking duck with a skyline view — smart for a client dinner."
Tohgen (梅源) is the Chinese restaurant of Hotel Okura Restaurant Yokohama, carrying the Okura group's long-running culinary tradition to the tenth floor of the Sogo department store at 2-18-1 Takashima, two minutes from Yokohama Station. It serves refined Cantonese cooking with luxurious-hotel polish and private rooms overlooking the city.
It is a dependable special-occasion table in Yokohama, alongside the teppanyaki and kaiseki of Ukai-tei and the steak house Ushimitsu.
The kitchen cooks the Cantonese banquet canon in the Okura style: shark's-fin soup, Peking duck and prawns in chilli sauce headline multi-course set menus — the Kissho course of eight dishes is ¥8,480 and the Saishoku-Kenbi course ¥12,000. It is a hotel-grade Chinese kitchen built for entertaining.
For a Japanese fine-dining contrast nearby, Ukai-tei pairs teppanyaki theatre with an elegant room.
The dining room sits high in the Sogo tower, with large windows that frame Yokohama's harbour and night skyline, plus a range of private rooms for parties of six or more. Service follows the famously precise Okura standard, which makes it well suited to formal entertaining.
The skyline views, private rooms and Okura-standard service make Tohgen a strong choice for impressing clients in Yokohama, while the banquet menus also suit a celebratory anniversary.
