MK Guide Recommends
Tucked beside Setta Bridge in Otsu, this intimate kappō hides in what was once a kimono warehouse. The space’s timber beams and courtyard light anchor the mood, while chef Megumi Nishizawa orchestrates a seasonal tapestry: Kyoto vegetables, Omi chicken, aged Sakaeya beef, deer, bear, fresh-catch fish from Lake Biwa—all expertly grilled over charcoal. Course meals shift with the harvest and game seasons, blending tradition with playful technique. It’s a place for slow appreciation—weekday lunches feel cultured, dinner courses feel artisanal, and the sense of history resonates through each bite.
