Sakaimachi Kamokura — Restaurant in Kyoto

We didn't know what to expect from an omakase and we found this place by chance. As soon as we entered , we understood that the owner put a lot of thought behind the decor and the presentation of the place. If you go, you will even notice that he chose the design of his bowls and plates.

Another little detail is in the chopsticks he sets for his clients to use. They are perfect to grab on to big or small things. All that to say is that the devil is in the details and the chef is on point.

The food was delicious, warm and perfect for the fall season. The chef himself was very attentive and kept an ear open for any questions. He was social and shows that he loves what he does.

I can only recommend this restaurant. You don't need to go just for omakase, since the restaurant also offer set options. I will let you find that...
