Kaiseki by the Kamo River—Kyoto tradition with a famed suppon hot pot.

Set along the Kamo River, Honke Tankuma is a classic Kyoto kaiseki house where every table is private. A walk down its long corridor reveals a serene garden and traditional architecture—Kyoto mood before the first bite. The name traces back to the first chef and his hometown, and the craft has been carried forward with a focus on letting seasonal ingredients speak: bamboo shoots in spring, sashimi and crisp vegetables in summer, meticulous autumn knife work, and comforting winter specialties. Don’t miss the signature single-serving suppon (softshell turtle) hot pot, prized for its clean, rich flavor. From May to September, book the riverside “noryo-yuka” deck for dinner with a view.
