"Set on the banks of the Takase River, this bistro specialises in charcoal grilling: think Wagyu beef, burgers, chicken brochette and charred yellowtail with yuzu, coriander and ginger. There are two large sharing tables, giving Kiln a communal, informal ambience. The dining room’s river-facing windows let in plenty of sunlight during the day and the space becomes cosy at night, when Artek pendant lamps light the brick-and-wood interior."
