Product details

■ A Culinary Journey into Kyoto's Refined Flavors and Traditions

Experience Kyoto's authentic cuisine with a local guide.

Join a guided Kyoto food tour and discover the refined flavors and traditions of Japan's ancient capital. Your guide will take you to a hand‑picked local restaurant hidden in a traditional neighborhood, away from the usual tourist paths.

Instead of a set multi‑course menu, enjoy à la carte dishes made with fresh seasonal ingredients, tailored to your taste and dietary needs. As you dine, hear fascinating stories about Kyoto's culinary heritage, from elegant imperial‑court dishes to Zen‑inspired vegetarian cuisine and tea‑ceremony traditions.

More than just food, Kyoto cuisine is a cultural expression of "omotenashi" (hospitality), seasonal beauty, and the harmony between flavors, presentation, and the tableware used.

This rare experience offers an intimate insight into the refined elegance of Kyoto's way of life through its most exquisite dishes.
