"Kyoto-style tempura is light and delicate compared to the Tokyo variety. This traditional inn-cum-restaurant serves some of the best in town, in a teahouse setting."

"It's famous for its tempura kaiseki cuisine, served to guests staying at the inn but also available to 12 lucky diners at its tempura counter, where they can watch the chefs prepare deep-fried morsels"
