Shimizu Gojo-zaka is long known as the city of Kiyomizu Ware and Kyoto-style Japanese fans. Harise was founded in 1659 and is located in a neighborhood that still has traces of the past. It is a long-established restaurant, which started as a small teahouse for visitors going to the nearby temple, and continues to add to its history.
“Harise’s cuisines require soup stock”, says Mr. Tomoyuki Morimoto, the 12th generation young owner who trained at Shofukuro, a Japanese restaurant in Shiga. A sense of the seasons is felt by making use of the seasonal ingredients to the fullest, and the use of the soup stock makes the Kyoto cuisine eccentric, tempting you to try the simmered and Suppon (Chinese soft-shelled turtle) dishes. In addition, one of the reasons why this restaurant is loved by the townspeople is because they cater to each customer’s preferences. By not succumbing to the “We can’t do it” philosophy, there are able to continue to make hospitable dishes with a sincere heart
