One Star: High quality cooking

Owner-chef Yasuo Kida puts his creativity on display with the way he applies heat and uses oils. For example, he coats white asparagus in rice flour and then deep-fries it, and stir-fries edible wild plants in a wok. For seafood tsukuri, he stays true to his principles, eschewing soy sauce in favour of condiments appropriate to each ingredient. He says that he learned from his mentor the importance of letting diners enjoy the flavours, and works hard to achieve that goal with every dish.
