One Star: High quality cooking
This restaurant is named after the Rinzai Buddhist monk said to be the founder of the Muso school. The modern space has an open feel, and the garden is tended by the proprietress, who is a landscape gardener. The chef seeks to convey the intrinsic flavours of ingredients, so does not take the ‘creative’ approach. Soups are made according to tradition, and rice is cooked in an earthenware pot. He grows wild grapes to make wine to complement the dishes.
