Imagine a restaurant where only the freshest ingredients are handpicked from the nearby mountains and entire menus are created around them, that is Sojiki Nakahigashi. One of the hardest reservations to get in Kyoto, we truly suggest trying because this meal will be unforgettable. 

Enjoy terrific wood-fired pizza with fresh seasonal local ingredients, which are sourced daily by the chef himself. Imagine the best Neapolitan pizza you can find with the Japanese attention to quality and detail. 

It is all about going back to the basics at Nanzenji Harada. Creating dishes only using dashi (stock made from kelp and bonito), with no fussy ingredients, so you truly taste the flavours of the food. The interior is minimal and reminiscent of the perfectly balanced outdoors. 

A luxurious elegant ryokan housed in a former royal residence. All the rooms overlook Kyoto’s eastern mountains, so the views are amazing. Make sure to book the bath in advance for private use.
