Yamaguchi

Description:

• If you have been visiting the nearby temples of Higashiyama, this cheap and well-established, three storey Chinese restaurant, on the Shirakawa (a river), is very handy for lunch or dinner. The first floor is counter style near the open kitchen so you can watch the chefs wield their woks, while floors two and three have tables more suitable for group dining. Lunch sets are good value while dinner can be a la carte with all the dishes best shared by two or three people. It is traditional Chinese cuisine with a contemporary twist with favorites like steamed meat and tofu.
