"Tsukihi" Lunch
"Tsukihi" is a contemporary Japanese food restaurant, opened about one year ago and is situated at the very back of a condominium complex near Cocon Karasuma. (It's approx. 5 minute walk to Tsukihi from our machiya guest house "Maeniiya.")

There are three course menus at lunch time and we ordered the smallest one. Today's appetizer: tuna salad, Japanese style spinich salad called "ohitashi," and yuba (made of tofu).

Today's main dish: renkon (lotus root) ball with minced chicken and ginger sauce. This was very delicious, especially with their rice, blended with eight grains and beans.
