First of all, you must provide an appointment. The restaurant is small in size, but the service is particularly good. The price is much cheaper than the Michelin restaurant. The taste is very good, and the ingredients provided are still very rich.

首先一定要提供预约的，餐厅面积不大的，但是服务特别的好，价格相比米其林类餐厅要便宜不少，味道非常的不错的，而且就提供的食材来讲还是很丰富的

川上，在日语当中店名叫做Kawakami。这家日料属于中高级别的，除了传统的日料，还有提供烤肉，并且店家还送了一些小菜。十分贴心，蔬菜色拉也十分好吃，分量也不少。

Kawakami is a mid-to-high-end Japanese restaurant. In addition to traditional Japanese food, it also provides barbecue and some side dishes. It is very considerate, the vegetable salad is also very delicious, and the portion is not small.

在花见小路的小巷子里，一共8个位子。东西很好吃。去的当地人比较多。店家很热情。很不错一次怀石料理的体验。

In the alley of Hanami-koji, there are 8 seats in total. The food is delicious. There are many locals there. The store owner is very friendly. It is a very good Kaiseki experience.

京都祗园附近的一巷里，是一家低调清幽的米其林一星，不到十个的台前座位，味道谈鲜甜Q弹回甘，而且菜品很精致，服务很有温度，另据说每天都是不一样的料理，让来访的客人都会有种期待，另外，要提醒的是必须要提早预定喔。

Arashiyama

A two-Michelin-starred restaurant. This restaurant is right in front of Kenninji Temple. It has convenient transportation and is still quiet. It is said that the chef came from Kikunoi. His craftsmanship is very good and the taste is extremely sweet and sweet. This is a high-end kaiseki restaurant that is very, very worth recommending to everyone.

After shopping, I felt a little hungry, so I came to this Japanese restaurant in the nearby block. The Japanese karaage, salmon sashimi and salmon in this restaurant are all very good. I personally recommend ordering them. The price-performance ratio is also relatively high.

Remember 2019.11 Kansai late autumn trip~ I went to book Kikunai on the first day of Kyoto. As a result, I didn&#39;t have the main store of the date I wanted, so I could only book a branch. Visit Kiyomizu Temple and go straight to Kikunaii. The reservation is 5 o&#39;clock and arrives on time. Every booked guest has a nameplate on the corresponding seat, and the sense of ritual is full. There is a menu today, but I don&#39;t understand it. Chefs, we are a bit of a piece, the chef will tell you every point of eating in simple English, kaiseki cuisine really eats service, atmosphere and ritual. To be honest, it is really not particularly delicious. I remember that crabs and tuna are delicious. Other soups, roasts, parent-child rice, etc. are very ordinary. In the end, if the meal can&#39;t be finished, they will be squeezed into rice balls for guests to take away. The dining experience is good, the taste is really not good in Japan, I eat a family in Hokkaido, it is better than this.

在米其林指南上连续获得星星的一家非常有质感的地方，他奢侈地大量使用京都老牌茶店丸久小山园抹茶的&ldquo;抹茶味道&rdquo;、使用京都&middot;清水七味家本店有着浓郁山椒风味的七味的辣和曲奇的甜完美糅合的&ldquo;七味&rdquo;等等，能够享受到重视京都风味的食材、运用米村师傅的感性所制作的12种口味的YONEMURA自创曲奇。盘饰的表現运用插画表现，可爱的盒子传递了温暖的心意，任谁都会喜欢。

Record of the late autumn trip to Kansai in November 2019~
I went to make a reservation at Kikunoi on the first day in Kyoto, but the main store was not available on the date I wanted, so I had to book a branch.
After visiting Kiyomizu Temple, I walked all the way to Kikunoi and arrived on time at 5 o&#39;clock as scheduled. Each guest who made a reservation has a nameplate placed on the corresponding seat, which is full of ritual.
There is a menu for today, but it is not easy to understand. The chef will serve one dish after another, and we will taste them one by one. The chef will also tell you the key points of eating each dish in simple English. Kaiseki cuisine is really about service, atmosphere and ceremony.
To be honest, it is really not very delicious. I just remember that the crab and tuna are delicious. Other soups, grilled food, parent-child meals, etc. are all very ordinary. In the end, if the rice is not finished, they will make it into rice balls for guests to take away and eat.
The dining experience is good, but the taste is really not good in Japan. I ate at any restaurant in Hokkaido, and it tastes better than this.

Delicious food and good times, you can eat the top Japanese cuisine in China, each dish is boutique, reflecting the careful workmanship.

It feels like a very good restaurant with an elegant environment. The size of the sushi is just right. Each one is delicious. Unknowingly, the whole family ate a lot! I like this restaurant very much and look forward to visiting here again!
