HIGASHI-YAMA Tokyo Mail News

This email is sent to guests who have dined with us at HIGASHI-YAMA Tokyo and our affiliated restaurants, and also those who have registered from our website.

It must be that due to frequent rain showers, there has been moderate weather lately. I hope you are enjoying summer time.

When using food therapy, Chinese medicine divides foods into three categories: Yin, Yang and neutral. Yin foods are cool or cold in nature and clear away the heat. Yang foods are warm or hot in nature and they warm the interior of the body. The third type are neutral foods which do not influence any hot or cold syndromes in the body. Summer vegetables, for example, are high in water content like tomatoes, eggplants and okra, while southern fruits are Yin. Rooted vegetables like carrots and burdocks, seafood, miso and soy sauce are Yang.

Eating too much of either Yin or Yang upsets the body balance. Think about your own constitution and try to strike that perfect balance between Yin and Yang to beat scorching summer heat!

We will be waiting for your visit with the freshest summer ingredients.
