If you're into kaiseki at all, I really recommend a visit if you have the time to squeeze a dinner (or even lunch) in.
Thanks so much. Unfortunately, with kaiseki dinners at 3* Kitcho and 3* Nakamura as well as lunch at 2* Gion Sasaki in Kyoto, plus lunch at 3* Wayamamura in Nara, I think we already have more than enough kaiseki! We likely will cancel our 3* Kichisen dinner in Kyoto as well.
Besides, I really want to try 3* Hajime in Osaka!
