This Chinese restaurant opened in 2003 in the city of Kyoto. The restaurant's name comes from the name of the capital's kitchen, "Omono no Tokoro," which used to be located in Otsu, Shiga Prefecture, and was named Zeze (陪膳). The restaurant serves Chinese court cuisine, including the famous Peking duck and braised shark's fin. The restaurant is a renovated store and residence of a historic former kimono merchant, and beyond the Western-style entrance lies an atmospheric Kyoto machiya (traditional townhouse). In the warehouse at the back of the courtyard, there is a small and cute bar named "Pochochi" where you can enjoy drinks from all over the world.

The skin that envelops the ample amount of red bean paste has a blissful texture. The juices overflowing from the red bean paste and the special sauce applied at the end of the dish soak into the skin, making it richly flavored and exquisite! It is as captivating as the red bean paste.

The pork buns are steamed in a steamer basket and finished with a special sauce. The sweet and sour taste and aroma will stimulate your appetite. For mail-order products, the sauce is provided separately so that it can be applied just before eating. By spreading a generous amount of sauce on the buns, you can enjoy the taste of the restaurant's original flavor.

While a typical steamed bun sold at convenience stores weighs about 100 grams, the shimidare tonmyan weighs more than twice that, at 235 grams!
