Remark ;
1, Sawachi ; Typical Kochi’s local decorating way of foods. We put many Sashimi, Sushi, Tempura etc. together on a big round tray, and we pick and share foods together. By doing it, we hope to strengthen the friendship more.
2, Makino Botanical Garden is a memorial garden of Dr. Tomitaro Makino, who is worldwide famous botanical scholar and was born just 150 year ago at
Sakawa-town in Kochi Prefecture. Our company’s founder Mr. Toshimichi Nakamura was born at same town as Dr. Makino, respected him so much. That’s why he was interested in flowers and plants, and wanted to study to get an occupation of flowers. It might be the origin of Nakamura-Noen.
