The owner-s chef trained in Europe, the birthplace of jibé cuisine, and returned to Japan. While working in Italian and French restaurants in Japan, he translated numerous cookbooks published in their home country using a dictionary. Through this study, he came to truly appreciate the charm of jibé cuisine.
As mentioned on the restaurant's website... The owner, who is a member of the Osaka Prefectural Hunters' Association, serves bird and animal dishes that he has personally caught.
ジビエとは、食べるために育てられる肉ではなく、自由に生き、ストレスが少ない状態で捕獲された肉のことです。大阪府猟友会に所属するハンターとして、狩猟や環境保護活動を行いながら、ジビエ肉の加工、店頭販売、飲食店への卸売り、そしてレストランのランチやディナーの提供も行っています。（お店のHPより抜粋・・許可済み）
I was interviewed during my visit here.
Instead of engaging in "harmful bird and animal extermination," they hunt for ingredients that are delicious as food. They take every precaution to ensure that each individual animal is properly prepared, and they experiment with different cooking methods to make each part of the animal as delicious as possible. They are still in the process of exploring the best cooking methods.
By the way, that's all for now...
We visited this restaurant with 5 people, including 3 adults and 2 children, in advance.
Around 5:45 p.m., we arrived at the Sakura Express Mizusese Station. It took about 5 minutes to reach the store on foot!
The exterior of the restaurant has the atmosphere of an Italian restaurant. Immediately, after disinfecting my hands with a disinfectant alcohol for COVID-19 prevention, I entered the interior of the restaurant and sat down at a table...
The interior of the restaurant displays fur and items such as deer horns, giving a sense of a game restaurant.
The grandson quickly recognized that these were real deer and asked, "Yes! That's right!!"

This time, the adults ordered a course for 4,500 yen, while the grandchildren chose individual dishes.
First, I asked for drinks.
I chose a white bottle from the recommended brands. Peperino (white) – it’s clean and easy to drink!
First, we serve homemade, freshly baked pot roast bread and Parmesan ham. It's a delicious ham that I really like. It was served together with the bread.
Next was a salad of deer meat cooked at low temperatures. The fresh vegetables—such as arugula, lettuce, and chard—were served with slices of deer meat. As a topping, there was a version of zawerkraft's bitter melon dish (a traditional dish from zawerkraft). Together, these ingredients created a combination of sourness and the bitter taste of the bitter melon, along with a deer meat ham that had no unpleasant odor at all.
Next, the island pizza ordered by our grandchildren arrives. It contains gorgon honey. The dough used for this pizza is made from pane carazzau, a type of bread from the Italian island of Sardinia. This pizza was created when the restaurant was established in Islandmune. It’s a unique pizza created specifically for the restaurant.
The crispy texture of the dough is truly unique; it offers a different taste from traditional Roman Pizza, making it a pizza I would love to eat again.

Deer stew with tomato sauce… Along with the pot-baked bread, this also was a surprise to me. The preparation was perfect; there was no trace of any unpleasant odor. I received some gifts as well.
If you have this dish as well, I highly recommend that you try it.
This dish, a Bolonezé topped with deer hormones, was absolutely delicious. The pasta was fresh and flavorful.
I asked for a recommendation for red-colored bottles.
A steak of deer meat was served. It was carefully cooked, and the inside was rare, soft, and full of flavor. It was a delicious red meat. On the side, there were erinopsis, shiitake mushrooms, Moroccan engen, and mini tomatoes.
In the Kansai region, there are also restaurants that serve Zibie cuisine. However, most of them purchase meat and serve it directly to customers. It's rare to find restaurants that conduct all the processes themselves—from hunting, dismembering, prepping, aging, to cooking—and then serve the final product to customers.
A restaurant where you can enjoy delicious game dishes in a convenient manner. This is my top recommendation.
