Feel the blessings of Lake Biwa at the long-established restaurant [Kosyu]

Kosyu is a restaurant located within the precincts of Ishiyama-dera Temple. You can enjoy the bounty of Lake Biwa such as funazushi, honmoroko, sweetfish, and shijimi (whitebait).

The brothers Kanta and Mizuharu Inoue are currently the main operators of the restaurant. Kanta, the elder brother, says, "My father passed away when I was in elementary school, and we took a break from serving eel for about 20 years, but we were able to bring it back the year before last thanks to Corona. ［Mizuharu, who trained at Kikunoi and Sumiyagura, a famous eel restaurant, is in charge of cooking. The traditional Kansai-style grilling method is used to grill the eel over a high-temperature charcoal fire to crispy perfection. Other popular dishes include charcoal Omi beef and Shijimi kamameshi.
