Temari sushi, the round, bite-sized kind shaped for geisha who couldn't smudge their makeup, is the whole point here. A sushi restaurant near Shimogamo Shrine, it specializes in these small hand-pressed spheres, rolled soft enough that the rice yields at first bite. Sea bream, tuna, shrimp, seasonal mackerel in autumn, steamed sushi in winter. The menu shifts with the calendar the way Kyoto cooking tends to, quietly and without fuss.
