Tempura Kyoboshi
restaurant
天ぷら 京星
2-Michelin star tempura restaurant with recipes passed down for 3 generations, serving light and crispy seasonal tempura.
Kyoboshi is a Kyoto tempura restaurant with two Michelin stars and three generations of family practice behind its current approach. The menu follows the seasons closely, and the batter is lighter than the Tokyo style, using cold water and minimal mixing to keep the coating almost translucent. Seasonal Kyoto vegetables appear alongside seafood, and the progression of the course is designed to build gradually in richness. The room is intimate and quiet, and the service is unhurried. Reserve well in advance, particularly during peak tourist seasons.
