This ryotei brings a fresh breeze to Japanese cuisine, bringing forth young and talented chefs. The fare overflows with rustic beauty. Bold yet refined, the dishes are served on both antique and modern plates. Seasonal ingredients such as Taiza crab and Japanese egg cockle are sourced from the Tango area, northern Kyoto prefecture, where Wakuden was founded. The premises are inspired by tea-ceremony arbours, the hostess gracious, the experience one of unbroken harmony.
