The tempura is unique, bursting with the flavours of each season. Coated in batter so thin it’s almost transparent, each piece is lightly deep-fried in a special oil based on a secret recipe. Service alternates between seasonal seafood and vegetables, dusted with hand-crushed salt to draw out the flavour. Pieces are small, in typically Kyoto consideration for the dainty appetites of geisha and maiko. The meal concludes with rice topped with tempura, over which refreshing green tea broth is poured—pure in its simplicity.
