  1. Shimanouchi Ichiyo

    Seasonal Kappo

    Save to a list Write a review On the Way Around

    Kappo sits somewhere between kaiseki's ceremony and an izakaya's ease, and Shimanouchi Ichiyo leans hard toward the easy end. It's a small, informal spot built around whatever came in from the Seto Inland Sea that morning, so the menu shifts daily. The kitchen has a taste for unexpected pairings, eel with kelp, fried sweetfish with tartar sauce. The sashimi platter ventures into less familiar cuts, rainbow trout and filefish served with its own liver.

Eat Score

The score comes from the awards it's won, weighted by who gave them: a Michelin star outweighs a listicle. When you sort by what's nearby, distance changes the order, never the score.

      Stay Score

      Four fifths of the score is the awards it's won, weighted by who gave them: a Michelin Key outweighs a listicle. The last fifth is where it is: the ranked places to eat and things to do around it, and how safe the country is. When you sort by what's nearby, distance from you changes the order, never the score.

          Best Place Score

          The Best Place Score rates the area around a point, not any one place. The places are 60% of it: the best of what's within reach, weighed by distance. The setting is the other 40%: how life goes in that country (how people rate their own lives, how long and how well they live, how safe they are) and what it's like right there (the air, and the weather). If the score looks low, we probably haven't found enough critics out here yet.
