K7

A popular rented restaurant reopens near Umekoji Park as "K-7".

January 29, 2025 open

In January 2025, Mr. Nobukawa, the owner of the popular rented restaurant "Otter Shokudo" in Nijo, Kyoto, finally opened his own restaurant, which he had longed for.
Even though the rented store was in a slightly inconvenient location, many customers came for it.

He decided that if the customers loved the restaurant so much, he would like to open a new restaurant and continue it, and named it K-7, combining the initials of the previous restaurant, which was loved by customers, and the newly chosen location, Shichijo-dori.

K7

Shintenchi is a machiya with exposed beams and greenery hanging by the windows, creating a special space that blends history and novelty. The menu here is simple, genre-less cuisine that makes the most of the ingredients, mainly kyo yasai (Kyoto vegetables). The chef wants customers to eat local food as much as possible, so he makes trips to Ohara and Kameoka to purchase ingredients.

Cold Salad, Natural Sea Bream and Orange Celery Leaf Yam, 1,200 yen. A refreshing dish of fresh vegetables and seafood accented with tropical spices.

Warm salad of bluefin squid and seasonal vegetables - served with red bell pepper and tomato sauce - 2,000 yen, wine by the glass 900 yen and up. Homemade sauce with a perfect balance of sour and spicy flavors enhances the flavor of the fragrant bluefin squid and vegetables.

When I was in elementary school, I cooked bacon for my friends who came over to my house, and they were so happy with the bacon. I decided to become a chef after realizing how happy it made me to see people happy with my cooking.

The dishes are colorful and bright, and naturally make diners feel happy and cheerful. It is likely that this restaurant will become a natural destination for those who are looking forward to seeing what kind of dish they will come across next.
