Record of a trip to Kansai in late autumn in November 2019~
Exit from the south entrance of Kofuku-ji Temple, and you will see a large courtyard soon. The red maple leaves and green leaves are colorful. There are two welcoming ladies standing at the door. The door curtains and large lanterns are all written with "Kikusui Building".
We said we didn't have a reservation, but the lady still took us in to line up. There are several buildings inside. We entered the second one. The environment is really pleasant. Eating in such an environment makes the appetite better.
We went upstairs and just sat down to wait for a seat. Unexpectedly, we were seated soon. There are small rooms inside, each with 3-4 tables. The seats are spacious and comfortable, and the tourists eat quietly. The atmosphere is quiet and beautiful.
We ordered different eel set meals, which are really delicious! I have eaten eel rice in many restaurants in Japan, and this one is definitely on the list. I like Nara even more.
