The quality of the tempura here is excellent and the atmosphere of the place was great.. that Hiroshi Senju piece on the back wall completed the picture for me.

The quality of the tempura here is excellent and the atmosphere of the place was great.. that Hiroshi Senju piece on the back wall completed the picture for me. But for me, there was just something a little bit off.. maybe it was the small misunderstanding with the wrong number of seats, which to be honest can happen sometimes. But I felt that because of that there was a general avoidance of our end of the table throughout the whole evening. Or perhaps it was the selective re-booking. Kind of ruined it for me. Shame because the quality of the tempura here is amongst the top 3 places for me in Japan.

鮨 はしもと
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
はしもとさんはすぎたさんで12年間働いた後、2014年にオリジナルショップをオープンしました。最近、新富町に移転し、寿司を楽しむ人々に大人気です。 赤酢と米酢をブレンドしたシャリのバランスがしっかりしているので、強いシャリの味を楽しむ人にぴったりの場所です。楽しかったです。

Skin contact pinot gris from Beau Paysage was more restrained than i expected. Paolo Bea.. unusual chemically tinged palate, not really my cup of tea. The 3 Barolos showcased the various styles across the winemakers who all share overlapping traditionalist views. Cappellanos classic style showed rusticity and purity. The small single vineyard wines from Canonica on the upper slopes with it naturalist methods brings through a restrained power and elegance. Then Accomasso, who comes through as the most balanced of the three makers.. floral and dark cherry essence supported by elegance and structure. Fun wines for a super dinner.

- Kevin Chen added a new meal Dinner at 片折 at Kataori
片折
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Back for winter menu. Quality was top notch as always, although still shy of the first visit. The fresh tuna belly had a tougher texture than normal so some insane knife skills were used to balance the texture. Shirako on ice also gives the shirako more grip but the highlights for me were the shiitake and crab dishes.

MUNI Alain Ducasse

Beautiful restaurant in the MUNI Hotel in Kyoto. Solid food that utilises more Japanese ingredients and techniques than I expected.. Not to mention, the rooms and spa are really top notch.

祇園 大渡

松葉蟹season, and whilst the appetiser soup and shabu shabu crab were tasty, this is the reckoning. End game rice. Crab meat, crab miso, negi, seaweed, egg, shoyu. This rice is a proper singularity. Amazing.

Chef worked at Noma before but I felt that he has created his own distinct style. Its nice to find these kinds of places popping up, especially in a place like Kyoto.

1975 Clos de Tart クロ ド タール

Perhaps the oldest Clos de Tart i have tasted. Unexpected to say the least. There was some varnish on the nose and to start with but quite a strong sweet red berry on both nose and palate. The sweetness was reminiscent of some older wines which had doses of Gamay or something else... More

Perhaps the oldest Clos de Tart i have tasted. Unexpected to say the least. There was some varnish on the nose and to start with but quite a strong sweet red berry on both nose and palate. The sweetness was reminiscent of some older wines which had doses of Gamay or something else in it. Not something I expected from this. It feels a little tired on the palate and doesn't have much complexity. Relatively short finish.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Single largest GC monopole with 7.5ha+, located next to Bonnes Mares and in incidents in the past, actually taking over a small part of BM plots. It is difficult wine for me to fully understand and I think part of the reason is the size of the size. Its too big.

I complain about makers that are too stylistic all the time. At the same time I understand the delicate balance between representation of the winery style vs the plot style. I like Bizot because I think he has figured out how to find the balance. This 2014 VR shows the style of Bizot for sure, but I think also represents the spice and dark fruit of VR. But that Bizot purity and red fruit and perfume shows prominently. I like.
