"The kaiseki embodies the maxim, ‘cooking makes the person’. Owner-chef Iwasaki’s mature techniques and unforced Kyoto sophistication reveal themselves in his cuisine. In his nabe cooking, he prepares each dish in front of his customers to ensure they don’t miss the fresh-cooked aroma. The beef and slightly bitter taste of edible wild plants in the Spring Bitter Stew put the soul at ease. The rice in an earthenware pot is prepared using Koshihikari rice from his hometown of Kyotamba." - Michelin Inspector
