Part 1 of 8 at a #kaiseki. The "kaiseki" is a traditional Japanese degustation wherein the chef lovingly and artfully prepares each small dish like a ritual. You won't know what's on the menu until the dishes are served. Today we had 8 courses, which ended with a warm rice porridge with sour plum. 👌 The server was pleased with how we used chopsticks with ease, "You are expert." You WILL spend approximately 2-3 hours at a place like this. Apologies for the blurred shot, was just too excited to eat! #matcha #tea #sushi #lime
