MICHELIN Guide's Point Of View
Enjoy the locally cultivated bounty of historic Nara, in an area with many elegant townhouses. As at the head restaurant, Kiyosumi no Sato Awa, the key ingredients on the menu are traditional homegrown vegetables. The offerings include a basket of assorted colourful appetisers, tempura of Yamato vegetables, and nimono thickened with Yoshino kudzu. The culinary delights of Nara are also highlighted, such as Yamato beef with local sake.
Gastronomy & Sustainability
MICHELIN Green Star
"We protect traditional Nara vegetables to ensure their future. Growing native crops allows us to pass on the local culture and history. We also engage in environmental conservation by way of cyclical farming without the use of agricultural chemicals. The goats we raise eat our vegetable scraps, which are also composted."
