Today, I visited Sangencha, a Japanese restaurant in Gion for lunch. This restaurant has Michelin one star. |
There are 10 seats at the counter on the first floor and 2 private rooms on the second floor. Since we were three, we booked one of the private rooms. |
Japanese maple leaves were printed on the luncheon mat. It is very suitable for fall. |
At first, seaweed tea was served. It had a strong seaweed flavor and I liked it very much. |
Appetizer. Scallops, simeji mushrooms, etc. Yuzu (Japanese citrus) enhanced the flavor of the dish. |
Soup. This is a typical dish (dobin-mushi) in this time of the year. |
Inside, it had matsutake mushrooms, daggertooth pike conger, fish cakes, etc. The soup was very light but tasty. |
It was more like carpaccio. This ponzu sauce (I believe home made) was very good. |
This container is made of Japanese cypress, and smelled very good. |
Grilled fish (I don't know its English name). |
This contained various different dishes. |
Underneath the leaf, you can find fried fish, egg, mackerel sush, etc. |
In addition, we got the dish contained salmon, taro, and wheat gluten. This soup was sooo tasty! |
Pickles and |
Small fish (I don't know its English name) for rice. |
Rice and miso soup. |
Miso soup. |
Grapefruit and wine jello. This jello was a good match with the biterness of grapefruit. |
And at last, monaka. |
