This was by far our most memorable and enjoyable experience. We especially liked speaking with one of the family members who was the 11th generation of carrying on this tradition. Domo arigato gozai masu for treating us so well.

While Kakusho is expensive, it was an investment in our culinary education. A splendid degustation, beautifully paced and utterly delicious. Course after course of local specialties that set the standard for soba noodles, rice that was almost like risotto, yuba bean curd skin and an array of delicious vegetables, the burdock being a revelation. Teamed with a wonderful smoot dry sake and impeccable service, Kakusho is worth every cent.
