Shūhaku
French-influenced Japanese
Rice cooked in a traditional wood-fired kamado stove anchors the menu at this intimate Kyoto dining room, where the chef spent his formative years absorbing French technique alongside Japanese fundamentals. The result is a menu that moves between chub mackerel sushi and something like abalone foie gras without blinking. It sits in Higashiyama, which means the neighborhood is doing as much atmospheric work as the kitchen.
