Restaurant Details
Just a 7-minute walk from Kintetsu Nara Station, "Sukiyaki Kappo Kitsune" is tucked away in a charming alley in Nara, Japan's ancient capital. While Nara is known for its ancient temples and sacred deer, this restaurant infuses the city with a contemporary culinary soul, redefining the national dish of sukiyaki. The highlight of the meal is the local Nara brand, "Wabi beef," premium black Wagyu beef that is lightly simmered in a rich broth seasoned with local rice candy, resulting in a smooth and delicate flavor.
What sets "Kitsu" apart is its bold innovation in flavor; in addition to high-quality eggs, guests can try a variety of unique dipping sauces and spices. As part of the "sio" group, the restaurant incorporates appetizers and desserts that embody the essence of French cuisine into its menu, perfectly blending European elegance with the spirit of Japanese tradition. Whether you choose the classic full set menu or the distinctive "Wagyu-mabushi," you'll find refined yet approachable dining options, allowing you to experience a feast of Nara's finest local ingredients in a space that straddles history and modernity.
