Obama, which was the center of Miketsukuni, is a historic place where Wakasa seafood and salt were presented to the ancient Imperial Court and this museum was created as a place where people could come into contact with this history and culture and interact with other people. The museum is divided into sections to introduce the diet of this region with replicas of dishes such as Zoni (rice cake soup)—the Symbol of Japanese New Year Food, Traditional Events and Foods which introduce a year in the folklore treasure trove, Wakasa Obama, based on foods, and Miketsukuni Wakasa and Saba Kaido (the ancient mackerel route) which is Japan Heritage. A number of courses are also offered.

日本全国の食文化について、食品サンプルを使って説明されている感じですが、これなら別に小浜になくてもって感じがします。上階では食品サンプルづくりの体験コーナーなどもあるみたいで、さすが、食品サンプルは上手に作ってありました！温泉が併設されているので、温泉が好きな方は立ち寄るのもありと思いますし、ゆっくりはできる感じです。でも、二度はないかな。
