Tempura Sakugetsu, whose name signifies "new moon," represents a fresh beginning in the realm of tempura dining. Established in September 2024 in Osaka's Shimanouchi district, this restaurant operates under the supervision of Shunsaiten Tsuchiya, a two-Michelin-starred kaiseki establishment. The chef at Sakugetsu emphasizes the intrinsic quality of each tempura piece, utilizing a blend of cottonseed and sesame oils for frying. Notably, the chef employs a skilled technique to drain excess oil, eliminating the need for traditional tempura paper. The intimate setting features a 10-seat counter, allowing guests to observe the meticulous preparation of their meals. Reservations are required to ensure a personalized dining experience.
