Ajitei Yamazakiya (味亭 山崎屋)
Yamazakiya, a venerable purveyor of Narazuke pickles established in the early Meiji period, opened this restaurant in 1984 with a view of handing down their own flavors of Nara's regional cuisine. In addition to kaiseki meals that change every month and chef's choice courses, the restaurant also has 13 varieties of set meal. Guests can enjoy regional favorites such as cha-gayu (rice gruel cooked in tea), persimmon leaf sushi, Miwa somen noodles, and much more.

Nara Areas

With a reputation almost as stellar as that of Kyoto, Nara is a must-visit for those searching for the remains of "traditional Japan." The largely green Nara city holds the majority of the prefecture's treasures, such as the iconic Todai-ji Temple, in which a 15-meter tall Great Buddha sits, and Nara Park, where deer flock to befriend passersby. While mountains are by no means hard to come by in this area, for hiking with a reward, head to the Kii Mountains' Yoshino district in spring, when the hillsides put on an impressive display of white and pink cherry blossoms.
