A toast from the morning at Poli in Kitayama, a restaurant with a somewhat exotic atmosphere.

July 17, 2024 open

This cute-looking restaurant catches the eye as you enter an alley off Kitaoji Dori. The owner, Ms. Nahuri Mizukami, trained at an Italian restaurant in Osaka and a wine bar [ekaki] in Kyoto, and after working as a renter, she opened her own restaurant. She has been serving authentic Italian-based dishes made with ingredients such as Ohara-grown vegetables and natural wines and other alcoholic beverages since 9:00 in the morning.

I hope people will enjoy drinking in the morning or at noon with healthy, non-heavy entrées," says Mizukami. The interior of the restaurant, which is moderately lit by the morning sun, is decorated with natural materials and antique furniture in harmony, making it look like a restaurant in a small European village.

The morning plate with homemade focaccia, caponata, etc. is perfect for breakfast or as a wine snack, and there is a counter where you can relax by yourself, and the low ceiling contributes to the cozy atmosphere, making it easy to linger.

Aqua Pazza of Maizuru lotus sea bream, 1,820 yen, and a cup of Sapporo Black Label draft with blood orange, 650 yen, recommended for a morning drink. Simple seasoning is used to bring out the flavor of the ingredients of the fresh lotus root sea bream shipped directly from Maizuru Port.

Spaghetti with tomato sauce for 1,430 yen is Mr. Mizukami's specialty. The sauce, made by stir-frying aromatic vegetables and simmering them with tomatoes for 12 hours, is full of the flavor of the ingredients. Goes great with wine!
