Tempura

Do you like 'Tempura'?
'Tempura' is a traditional deep-fried dish that is considered one of the "three delicacies of Edo" (alongside Sushi and Soba).
Vegetables are most frequently used as ingredients but it also works well with seafood.
As some might know, it is very difficult to prepare Tempura at home if you do not know the right frying technique.

The izakaya "Gion Manzara" serves delicious Tempura while giving a you a taste of the atmosphere in a traditional Kyôto townhouse (machiya).

Gion Manzara

Gion Manzara serves original Japanese cuisine and is located near the famous tourist spot Yasaka-shrine in Gion.
The building itself conveys the atmosphere of an old townhouse, which is characteristic for Kyôto.
You can choose your seating, depending on whether you are receiving guests or are just eating out with friends. There are counter seats, tables or Tatami-rooms available.
Although Tempura is the speciality, Gion Manzara serves a variety of casual Japanese food under the heading of "original Japanese cuisine".

Seasonal ingredients

The Tempura-dish of Gion Manzara is highly recommended and renowned for its use of seasonal ingredients.
Gion Manzara selects the best ingredients of every season and therefore the exquisite taste of the Tempura varies according to the time of the year.
It does not surprise that this izakaya counts as an insiders' tip and is paid frequent visits to by the locals.

Kamo-eggplant

Manzara-tei also places value on using local ingredients for its dishes.
Representative for this are the traditional vegetables of Kyôto (kyo yasai).
Sandwiches of deep-fried Kamo-eggplant and sea urchins are particularly tasty.
Prepare to get hooked on the sweet and harmonizing taste of the eggplant and the sea urchin.

Gion-district of Kyoto.

We highly recommend you to try a delicious Tempura-dish at this hideaway-like townhouse izakaya, which stands quietly in the athmospheric Gion-district of Kyoto.
