Il Miraggio: Buffet Lunch in Hakone
If you're looking for a bite while exploring the south side of Lake Ashi in Hakone, why not head to Il Miraggio on the bottom floor of the Hakone Hotel (箱根ホテル)? Here you can get a French-style lunch buffet for ¥2,770 while enjoying a lovely view of the lake.

Aside from the view, the key feature is the soft-serve ice cream, with plenty of fixings to make your own brownie sundae!
If you arrive early, the breakfast buffet is ¥2,200, while dinner courses get a little pricier, coming between ¥7,150 and ¥11,000, plus 10 percent service charge.
