Yushima-an

Yushima-an is a takeout specialty shop run by a long-established butcher shop with 70 years of history in Gero. Here, you can enjoy top-quality A5-grade Hida beef in a range of gourmet offerings perfect for snacking while exploring the hot spring town.

The must-try item is the seared beef sushi, made to order. The marbled cut offers a melt-in-your-mouth texture with a rich, sweet fat, while the lean cut delivers an intense, savory flavor—both are exceptional. The most popular set, the "Three Delicacies Platter," includes one piece each of marbled and lean beef sushi, along with one pork belly sushi made from "Hida Nattokuton Pork," a pig raised on fermented soybeans. The sushi is served on shrimp crackers, making it easy to enjoy on the go.

In addition to beef sushi, the shop offers a variety of Hida beef-based takeout options, such as sukiyaki croquettes. There's also a wide selection of drinks, including local craft beer from Gero and Hida, sake, and juices. Inside the shop, the showcase displays various cuts of beef. For meat lovers, you can choose your favorite cut and pay for both the meat and a grilling fee to enjoy a freshly grilled Hida beef steak—an experience not to be missed.
