Tempura Japanese
Batter so thin it's nearly transparent is the whole point here, each piece fried in a proprietary oil the kitchen guards with quiet Kyoto resolve. This is a Michelin-starred tempura counter in Gion, where portions are deliberately small, a nod to the geisha and maiko the neighborhood has fed for generations. Seasonal seafood and vegetables arrive dusted with hand-crushed salt, and the meal closes with rice topped with tempura, green tea broth poured over the top.
