Gion Kida
Kyoto, Japan




The Experience
From Michelin Guide
There is a traditional way of viewing the year as 72 distinct micro-seasons, each lasting no more than a few weeks. The turning of the seasons is but a fleeting moment, and the same is true for the seasons of ingredients. If ingredients are the cause, the effect is cooking, and the natural world is the connection between the two. The chef examines the nature of the foods he sources each day and crafts his results with respect for both cause and connection. The guests receive the life of the ingredient.The principles of cause, connection and effect are all found in cooking.
