Traditional Kyoto kaiseki with French influence, whale meat
"Wagyu beef is perfectly grilled and paired with the rich, savoury depth of Daitokuji Nato and black olives. Generous shavings of chestnut signal the arrival of autumn, while the fusion of Japanese and Western ingredients creates a symphony of unique flavours. Presented on plates created by contemporary artists, dishes such as these are pushing the boundaries of Japanese cuisine into exciting new territories." - The MICHELIN Guide
"Nestled in a century-old Sukiya-style house in Kyoto, Kodaiji Jugyuan pays homage to the traditions of the past. The restaurant offers exceptional meat-based preparations using Western cooking techniques while preserving Kyoto gastronomy traditions." - MICHELIN Guide Japan
"Jugyuan is named after the famous Zen painting series, Jugyuzu, or ‘Pictures of Ten Oxen’. It has a sukiya-style house and beautiful garden. The chef incorporates seasonal festivals into his menu, imparting a sense of the customs of the ancient capital. Part of the attraction of Jugyuan is that meat dishes are a key part of the menu. Western techniques of flame control are applied here, thanks to the involvement of Hiramatsu, famous for its French cuisine. Kodaiji Jugyuan explores new directions while safeguarding the traditions of Kyoto gastronomy." - Michelin Inspector
