Okariba

Japanese regional restaurant

👍👍 A bit out of the way from the main area, however, a visit to Okariba is a must! It was one of the highlights of our trip. The charcoal grilled wild boar and duck was a highlight - very tasty. If you're daring enough, try the grasshoppers and bee larvae (and for the very brave - the horse sashimi,...

Kyoryori SATSUK

Japanese restaurant

👍 I go to the Kamogawa Noryo Yuka every summer. Not only do you have a beautiful and elegantly arranged meal, but you can also enjoy the atmosphere while listening to the sound of the Kamogawa River, looking at the Daimonji and the moon, and feeling the cool breeze.
