〇요리 상세 정보
◆ Luxury Special Set
A set including the restaurant's famous dish "Kikukawa One-Combo", small plates, three types of mini sashimi, a limited tea steamed dish, liver fillet, and aromatic items.
First, the seasonal tea bowl steamed food was served. (Normally, this item is available for a limited time of 15 servings only!) It was a refreshing summer-style tea bowl steamed food, filled with shrimp, tomatoes, and jyunさい.
After that, the eel dish arrives. It’s so luxurious that I’m surprised. Just one piece of eel… I knew it was available, but its presence is truly impressive!!
The eel had a fragrant skin, crispy on the outside, and its flesh was thick and fluffy—the cooking degree was absolutely perfect!
According to the source, it's a Japanese-style restaurant that serves dishes cooked by roasting without steaming. That's why you can truly experience this crispy texture of the food. ✍
On the table, there are soy sauce made with eel, mountain pepper, and black seven-flavor sauce. You can choose which you prefer.
This restaurant has been in operation for over 90 years. They pay great attention not only to the selection of ingredients and the way they are cooked, but also to every detail, including the sauce, the presentation, and the utensils. I savored this dish while thoroughly enjoying it.
The utensils specifically designed for eel seem to have excellent insulation properties. Even after a certain amount of time has passed, if you place a spoon in them, steam will still be generated.
Included in the set are dishes like tuna, kanchari, and saba. They are presented as minor ingredients, but these items are also truly fresh, crisp, and delicious! It's just too luxurious✨️
◆わらび餅
Seasonal fruits were served with the meal.
If held with chopsticks, it falls down due to gravity—so soft! I can hold it without chewing it (confident).
Even the desserts are of high quality.
◆Kikukawa Eel Special Assamblage
A Japanese sake developed in collaboration with the three famous chefs of Kyoto—Tsukushi Motoyuki, Kamizu, and Yufunobou. Only available to be consumed here at Kikukawa's tuna restaurant.
Although it is a sweet-tasting dish, its aftertaste is acidic, making it easy to drink. Therefore, it complements the strong flavors of the eel perfectly. It’s truly a great match. ⋆͛

There are restaurants in many places, but I think this is a place that offers a unique atmosphere that you can only experience here ☺️✨️
This time, we were guided to a private room on the second floor!
On the counter on the first floor, it seems that eel is being cooked. That seems interesting too.
The uncle who was cooking eel gave me a great response by allowing me to take photos of him.
This is a recommended restaurant for those who want to visit Kyoto, as well as for those who wish to enjoy a more luxurious lunch or for celebrations.
Thank you for your hospitality!
