Godan Miyazawa

What makes a good kaiseki restaurant is the quality of the fancily-presented course dishes, but what makes one truly special is the experience that comes with them. Godan Miyazawa infuses the beauty and care of traditional Japanese tea ceremony throughout the whole dining experience. From the gorgeous utensils and plating to the food on the menu, a dine-in here is the ultimate cultural crash course. Revolving around traditional customs and aesthetic ideals, owner Masato Miyazawa pays close attention to the details of the dishes he serves in the omakase menu, which he switches up daily and monthly based on the available ingredients. Miyazawa’s inventive cooking techniques results in distinct creations which reflect back upon the history contained on each plate. By preparing three different bowls of rice, with varying levels of firmness, the chef displays the importance of rice in Japanese cooking. Dining at Godan Miyazawa is an educational, entertaining experience that’s not to be missed.
