Ikemasa tei

  • obanzai
  • restaurant

Ikemasa-tei used to be a greengrocer famous for its ornamental vegetable carvings. It eventually began serving food in the back of the store and has now become a set meal restaurant during the day and an izakaya (Japanese style bar-restaurant) at night. You can enjoy Kyoto's home-style dishes, called obanzai, such as yuba soy milk skin with spinach, mizuna (Japanese mustard leaves) cooked with fried tofu skin, and steamed turnip with minced fish, at reasonable prices.

The dishes are skillfully prepared by using dashi (Japanese soup stock) characteristic of Kyoto. As the restaurant used to be a green grocer, they want customers to feel the seasons with their vegetables. When asked, they will even tell you how to cook some of their favorite dishes.

They use their expertise in vegetable carving to serve dishes that are pleasing to the eye.
Enjoy the slightly different experience of coming to a market and having the kind of home-cooked style food that you would want to eat every day.
