Sokkon Fujimoto
Japanese
The chef here studies tea ceremony, flower arrangement, and calligraphy not as hobbies but as preparation for cooking, which tells you everything about the register of this Michelin-starred kaiseki restaurant in Kyoto. The guiding idea is "sokkon," a Zen call to inhabit the present moment, and it shows in the attention paid to every surface, gesture, and course. Formal, but not stiff; the room earns its quiet.
