After gaining cooking experience in Kyoto, owner-chef Mr. Mishima opened his own restaurant in Kyotango, his wife's hometown. They offer homemade European-style cuisine, including weekday lunch courses where you can choose your main course, and one-plate lunches for 1,100 yen.

Inside La Fontaine

Another appeal of this place is that you can read a variety of picture books lined up on the window sills, such as ``The Big Tree,'' ``The Cat Who Lived a Million Times,'' and ``The Traveling Boat.''

In fact, Mr. Mishima loves picture books so much that he has considered opening a picture book specialty store since he was a teenager. If you reread a favorite book you read as a child, you'll be sure to find new inspiration.

La Fontaine's Meat Course

All meat courses start at 2,900 yen. Lunch course available until 2pm on weekdays. Includes appetizer, salad, soup, main course, homemade bread, drink and dessert.
