Hajikami

The usui peas were a delightful surprise, and the bamboo shoot shinjo made a lasting impression. For one diner at Hajikami, these seasonal kaiseki dishes were the highlights of lunch. They also enjoyed teas blended to match the food, as well as kuromoji tea. It sounds like a lunch for taking your time over each dish and discovering how the food and tea work together.

Other diners describe enjoying seasonal dishes at dinner, including crab and beef steak in 12. These are accounts of what was ordered on those visits, rather than a fixed menu. One dinner review also recalls savouring each dish, along with its tableware and presentation. For an evening centred on a carefully paced meal in a calm setting, consider making a reservation.
