Kikunoi Roan

Record of the late autumn trip to Kansai in November 2019~ I went to make a reservation at Kikunoi on the first day in Kyoto, but the main store was not available on the date I wanted, so I had to book a branch. After visiting Kiyomizu Temple, I walked all the way to Kikunoi and arrived on time at 5 o'clock as scheduled. Each guest who made a reservation has a nameplate placed on the corresponding seat, which is full of ritual. There is a menu for today, but it is not easy to understand. The chef will serve one dish after another, and we will taste them one by one. The chef will also tell you the key points of eating each dish in simple English. Kaiseki cuisine is really about service, atmosphere and ceremony. To be honest, it is really not very delicious. I just remember that the crab and tuna are delicious. Other soups, grilled food, parent-child meals, etc. are all very ordinary. In the end, if the rice is not finished, they will make it into rice balls for guests to take away and eat. The dining experience is good, but the taste is really not good in Japan. I ate at any restaurant in Hokkaido, and it tastes better than this.

There are many traditional Kaiseki cuisines in Kyoto, but they are not cheap and are a big burden for ordinary tourists. However, restaurants like Kikunoi Roan have lunch sets for only 4,000 yen, which is a very good choice for those who want to try Kaiseki cuisine but don't have much budget! Speaking of Japanese cuisine, high-end Kaiseki cuisine is also a cuisine that tourists are eager to try, which can fully reflect Japanese culture. Many local ingredients are used and carefully cooked by chefs to become exquisite dishes. Not only the ingredients are exquisite, but also the presentation and tableware are pleasing to the eye.

I first came here for the Kaiseki experience, and a few years later I went to another location and was disappointed. This is one of the best restaurants in the country, and if you can get a table at the sister restaurant that's great, but this is also a good option.

The famous Michelin Beijing cuisine, originally went to Siheyuan near noon to eat, the result was already full, fortunately at night temporarily empty a table, we quickly made an appointment. The package in the evening market is more abundant and very exquisite. Since it is the cherry blossom season, each one is accompanied by fresh cherry petals, very fragrant, and mellow carp meat, which is delicious. Look at the picture and know one or two. The owner's service is also very enthusiastic, and he supports packing and taking away after eating.

In the history of more than 100 years of Michelin Samsung "Kurinoi Well" eating kaiseki cuisine, Michelin restaurant tastes good, the price is a bit expensive, more fusion than Kaiseki food and tableware are exquisite, eat together for 3 hours!

Junaijing Luxury service is first-class, noon is one-third cheaper than dinner, in order to save costs, we chose to eat at noon, anyway, we can not eat anything at night, it is recommended to book a month in advance, it is too popular.
