ChefHiroshi Sasaki: Connecting Kyoto cuisine and hospitality to the next generation
Born in Nara Prefecture in 1961. Born and raised in a family of true chefs, with his grandfather working as a caterer, his father working in a traditional Japanese restaurant, and his cousin and uncle running inns and sushi restaurants. He trained at various restaurants, including the traditional Japanese restaurant and inn "Rinkoan" in Shiga Prefecture. At the young age of 27, he became head chef of the traditional Japanese restaurant "Fujita" in Pontocho. In 1998, he opened "Gion Sasagi" on the north side of Gion-cho. In 2002, he moved to a slightly larger restaurant with about 10 counter seats. In 2006, he opened his current restaurant in a house on the south side of Kenninji Temple.
Food Enjoy a moment of seasonal change with a simple yet profound dish.
With the motto of "only using the best ingredients without compromising," chef Sasaki personally visits markets and fishing grounds to purchase only the finest products. He transforms the exquisite ingredients he purchases that day into "a dish of the day" that is visually vibrant and beautiful, and brings out the full flavor of the ingredients. The moment you put the dish in your mouth, you can't help but feel the arrival of spring, with desserts such as chocolate domes drizzled in berry sauce and enjoying the moment they crumble. The presentation is not only seasonal but also playful.
The "aesthetics of minimalism" that brings out the flavor of the ingredients is outstanding. A Kyoto flavor created with a free-spirited approach, learning from the past and creating something new.
Located on a corner of Yasaka Street, which exudes the atmosphere of the ancient capital, Kappo Gion Sasagi is known as the restaurant that is hardest to get a reservation for in Kyoto. Its charm lies
... in the light-hearted and witty conversation of the owner, Mr. Sasaki, and the unique style of course meal that starts once all the guests have gathered. The beautiful and energetic dishes made with seasonal ingredients will allow you to rediscover the fun and joy of eating. Experience to your heart's content the new generation of Kyoto cuisine that can only be tasted here.
