Inside the West Entry

I found it in Miyazu in northern Kyoto! Sushi kappo prepared by a Portuguese chef [West entrance]

June 17, 2022 open

Mr. Ricardo came to Japan to explore the world of Japanese cuisine, and expanded his knowledge at luxury inns in hot spring areas, Japanese restaurants in Tokyo, and kaiseki restaurants in Kyoto. When he started his own business, he and his wife Miho toured various places, and they instinctively knew that this was the place, and they found Miyazu, which is rich in nature.

Ricardo Komori and Miho Komori of West Entry

Chefs Ricardo Comolli and Miho Komori. Ricardo, who is originally from Portugal, came to Japan in 2015, trained at Japanese inns in the Kanto area, Tokyo, and Kyoto, and opened his own business in Miyazu. Miho is in charge of customer service

The climax of the course is 7 pieces of sushi featuring seafood caught in nearby waters. Koshihikari, which is grown without pesticides by Iio Jozo, and Fuji vinegar made from that rice are blended to create a faintly red sushi rice that melts in your mouth along with the uniqueness of the seafood.

One of the two desserts will be paondero, a traditional Portuguese pastry said to be the origin of sponge cake. The other dish of the day is a bracken cake

Enjoy the course, which is served after 7 to 8 dishes, up to the paon de l'eau, and take your time to enjoy it with the honest couple's conversation.
