We had lunch at Matayoshi where the delicate flavors of Kyoto cuisine were highlighted. Upon reserving the table, we were offered four different price tiers ranging from approx. $75 (USD) to $200+. (Per the restaurant chef, the different prices reflected the type and quality of ingredients used, not necessarily the number of courses.) We opted for one of the middle tier priced lunches only to find out that the middle-priced tiers were not available. We had to choose between the least expensive and the most expensive of which we chose the least expensive.
The restaurant is a simple 8-seat bar with standard minimalist decor. Although I had read that the chef spoke English, he did not speak to us for most of the lunch. We were attended to by a younger "sous chef" who was kind and attentive. Assisted by both a picture book and Google Translate, we were able to discern most of what we were eating. Lunch consisted of about ten thoughtfully prepared, subtly flavored courses. They were all delicious. One of the final courses was a box with a dozen or so small intricate bites where the chefs' efforts and creativity were on full display. Was the lunch worthy of two Michelin stars? Not really sure. Certainly one-star worthy, and at $75 USD (not including drinks), it's a good deal. I'm happy to have eaten here; however, were I to visit Kyoto again, I would be interested to try other Michelin restaurants.
