What to expect

【Kyoto Style Kaiseki Cuisine】 Because Kyoto is surrounded by mountains, this makes it difficult to obtain a variety of seafood. As a result of this making exceptionally delicious cuisine with limited options for ingredients has always been the best demonstration of a chef’s cooking skills. You can enjoy these subtle flavors that highlight the natural essence of the ingredients while your eyes are dazzled by the beautiful presentation of each dish. 【Maiko】 A maiko is an apprentice geiko (not exactly same as geisha) in Kyoto, western Japan. Their jobs consist of performing songs, dances, and playing the shamisen or the koto (traditional Japanese instruments) for visitors during feasts. Maiko are usually aged 15 to 20 years old and become geiko after learning how to dance the traditional kyomai dances, play the shamisen, and learning Kyō-kotoba (dialect of Kyoto), regardless of their origins.
