MICHELIN Guide Restaurants in the World’s Most Unexpected Locations

"As close as you can get to dining like a Buddhist monk in a World Heritage-protected site, Shigetsu sits within the Tenryu-ji temple in ancient Kyoto and serves shojin ryori, a vegetarian cuisine rooted in Buddhist ascetic traditions. Diners kneel or sit cross-legged on tatami mats, with food thoughtfully presented on low tables before them. The serene setting mirrors the deeper purpose of the meal: Shojin ryori is believed to quiet worldly desires, cleanse the soul and inspire spiritual awakening." - The MICHELIN Guide
