About Ozen:
In Japanese cuisine, “Ozen” refers to a style of dining in which an entire meal—rice, soup, pickles, and side dishes—is served on a tray or set of lacquerware.
This style is deeply rooted in kaiseki, the traditional multi-course meal, emphasizing seasonal ingredients, harmony of flavors, and visual presentation. Using a tray like this reflects the aesthetic and precision of Japanese food culture.
