A Sushi Restaurant in Saiin, Kyoto That Is Particular About Natural Fish and Vegetables
A sushi restaurant about 13 minutes walk from Tambaguchi Station on the JR Sagano Line. This restaurant is run by a proprietor who wants people to enjoy sushi in a casual manner, and strives to create a customer - centered restaurant. You can visit anytime during business hours, and you can even use it with your baby. They serve sushi and other dishes according to the customer's pace. For dinner, we recommend the "General's Omakase Nigiri Course" where you can enjoy 12 pieces of nigiri. We use ingredients that are kind to the body, such as sushi vinegar and salt that do not contain chemical seasonings, and vegetables that do not use pesticides as much as possible. I want to fully enjoy sushi made with fresh, natural seafood.
The owner's personality, which deals directly with food, is appealing.
The head chef, born to a sushi chef father, trained at Kyoto's premier kaiseki and sushi restaurants before opening his own establishment in 2000. Alongside managing the restaurant, he volunteers as a Kyoto food education instructor and dreams of contributing to world peace through cuisine by opening a restaurant abroad.
Kyoto Vegetable Pickled Sushi, a Specialty of "Ookini"
Pickled sushi that actively incorporates not only local Kyoto vegetables but also seasonal vegetables purchased from all over Japan. We offer a variety of items, including sake - pickled Mibuna marinated in original sake and Kujo green onions. The healthy flavor, which is different from fish, is addictive, and many people come from far away or order it.
