Away from the bustle of Ginza, 'Ippo' presents a quiet elegance. This tempura specialty store captivates many gourmets with its exquisite fusion of traditional techniques and modern creativity.
The hallmark of Ippo is the tempura fried by skilled artisans in front of you. At the counter seats, you can closely observe the ingredients being coated in batter and fried in hot oil. This visual experience enhances the flavor of the dishes.
The menu changes with the seasons, allowing you to enjoy tempura made with seasonal ingredients. In addition to classic shrimp and squid, rare vegetable tempura like tara buds and Kyoto carrots are also offered. Among them, the creative tempura with sea urchin and caviar on fried seaweed is praised for its complex texture and flavor.
The course meals in private rooms not only feature tempura but also include sashimi and soup dishes, allowing you to savor the essence of Japanese cuisine. The finale, 'kakiage tendon', is a showcase of Ippo's culinary expertise.
Ippo is more than just a tempura restaurant. It embodies Japanese food culture and is a gastronomic stage reinterpreted with a modern sensibility. When visiting Ginza, be sure to spend blissful time at this hidden gem.
