There is a Chinese restaurant in Nara that boasts overwhelming popularity: Kuko.Previously ranked No. 1 on Tabelog in Nara, it has reset its score due to relocation, but it has already surpassed a score of 4, making it only a matter of time before it regains its top position.The lunch and dinner menus are quite different.Lunch features a course centered around dim sum, while dinner generally does not include dim sum. If you want to enjoy dim sum, I recommend going for lunch.⭐️ Lunch Course: JPY 7,000▪️ 5 Assorted Appetizers▪️ Nourishing Soup▪️ Sticky Rice Shumai and Soup Dumplings▪️ Shrimp and Chive Dumplings with Fennel and Maitake Mushrooms▪️ Salt Water Pastry with Hairy Vegetable (Fatchoi)▪️ Steamed Lotus Root and Squid▪️ Yamato Pork Bao▪️ Zongzi Wrapped in Lotus Leaves▪️ Almond JellyWhen it comes to dim sum, Kuko is simply the best.The salt water pastry is particularly exceptional and I believe it's among the highest level in Japan.Although the number of seats has increased after the relocation, making a reservation is still quite challenging, but I highly recommend giving it a try.
