From the owner
To me, Kyoto cooking means not running too far ahead of the season. I serve what is in the fields right now and what the sea is giving right now, in the way it tastes best.
Why this place supports social causes
I choose our Kyoto vegetables by going out to the fields of farmers in Ohara and Kamigamo. Some of our tableware is made for us by a young potter who opened a kiln in Higashiyama; we write the maker's name on the printed menu so that anyone who likes a piece can visit the kiln.
From the place
Because we keep up a face-to-face relationship with the farmers who grow our Kyoto vegetables and the young potter who makes our tableware.
What the restaurant cares about
Kyoto vegetables, chosen in the field
We keep visiting the farms of growers in Ohara and Kamigamo, and plan each week's menu from what we find.
Dashi made fresh every morning
We draw the first dashi just once each morning, from Rishiri kombu and honkarebushi (fully cured bonito).
Dislikes and allergies
Please let us know about shellfish, wheat, egg, dairy, buckwheat or anything else when you book. We will rework the menu.
