GOKAN UOGIN
Japanese
Charcoal smoke and billowing steam from the rice pot are built into the theater at this counter-seat Japanese dining room in Nara, where kitchen staff and guests face each other across the pass. The chef holds a Michelin star and frames the meal around fish and rice, ending with Hinohikari rice from Yamato served in bowls he made himself. The five-senses pitch sounds like a concept, but the grill does the convincing.
