Kyoto, Gion – Italian cuisine restaurant “Listretto 245 Gion”
“モダンヨーロピアンスタイル”という祇園のイタリアンレストラン。
You can enjoy original dishes made with seasonal Kyoto vegetables and ingredients from Miyama in Kyoto, using products like jibie. These dishes can be savored by engaging all five senses.
In 2011, it opened up on a new street lined with antique shops and art galleries.
Opening the lattice door of a townhouse with the charm of Kyoto, one is greeted by a modern, fully glass-door entrance.
From the transparent glass panel of the floor, one can see the wine cellar beneath the floor. The construction is quite elaborate. Perhaps there was a similar restaurant in Rome!

“カモミールティー”
I was able to spend a pleasant time with the regular customers at the counter.
At first, I thought that only regular customers would be there, and it would be uncomfortable for those who aren’t regulars. However, they still accepted me. It was like a rice gathering at the chef’s home.
It's because of the chef's personality that all of our customers love this restaurant.
