At first I didn’t expect to be this good. As a tofu lover I really fond of this place. They create traditional menu that adapt with tofu very well. Also their tempura were delicious. The crisp flour was white and crisp. The texture inside were well cooked and fresh. The tofu dish 👍🏻👍🏻 I ordered the tempura set, tempura plate and another tofu soy milk soup. They serve the dipping sauce set per person. (Without counting how many set you order)

I had a great cultural experience here. Took off our shoes in the front and lead to a private room. (even our party was 3, maybe that’s the available space). Its like entering someone’s house.

The staff were extremely good, well trained. Maybe familiar with a lot of visitors. They greeting us with service hot tea. And explain everything well. Always smile.
