This time, we head to Kyoto in the summer with Maiko Kozuka. Enjoy spectacular views from a masterpiece building & a fantastical night view & hidden gem gourmet!

A Taisho Roman Architecture Left by a Millionaire! Overlooking Kyoto

The first place we visit is [Goryukaku (Former Shoofu Kajotei)]. This was the residence of Kajyo Shoofu, a Kiyomizu-yaki potter and businessman, built in 1921. The first floor operates as [CAFE Goryukaku], utilizing the retro space. The second floor and above are not open to the public, but we are allowed a special tour this time.

The second and third floors are also lovely, but the highlight is the fourth floor. When you go up, you find a luxurious space with a panoramic view of the Kyoto cityscape! Not only Kyoto landmarks like Yasaka Pagoda, but also the skyscrapers of Umeda can be seen in the distance. Kozuka says, "I feel like a modern-day lord," and Mitamura says, "I could drink sake with this view," as they enjoy the magnificent scenery. Huge Queue! Surprising Mapo Tofu Made with Homemade Tofu

Feeling hungry, the two head to [Oni Tofu], a popular restaurant that opened last July. The restaurant boasts dishes made with homemade tofu, and Mitamura can enjoy his favorite food for lunch. Before that, Mitamura tries the homemade 'Soy Milk'. "The bean aroma is amazing!"

Then, the signature 'Mapo Oni Tofu Lunch' appears! Mitamura is surprised by the appearance, exclaiming, "Where did this come from? This idea!" He highly praises it, saying, "This is new!" What kind of mapo tofu is it?!

Gelato Made with Carefully Selected Japanese Ingredients, Inspired by Authentic Italian Techniques

Next, we visit a shop that Kozuka wished to revisit! [Tomomi Gelato] opened 10 years ago after the owner trained in gelato-making in Italy, the home of gelato. You can enjoy unique gelatos made with ingredients from all over Japan.

Kozuka, after tasting the 'Italian Parsley Tomato', says, "I can only say it's super delicious!" She also highly praises the gelato made with Kochi's 'Sansho Pepper', calling it "magically delicious!" A "Current" Memory of Your Trip: Latest 3D Photos

While strolling from Kiyomizu-Gojo towards Gion-Shijo, a certain studio catches their eye. It's a 3D photo studio called [SugataMe]. The two immediately decide to have their 3D photos taken. They say that using the photo data, they can even create their own personalized figures.

Unique Smoked Dishes at an Adult Hideaway

For dinner tonight, we visit [Smoked Rick], a hidden gem dining bar that opened near Ninnaji Temple. It's a restaurant where you can enjoy authentic Italian cuisine utilizing smoking techniques. The two toast with 'Smoked Whiskey'!

They enjoy dishes such as 'Potato Salad Special Edition' made with smoked olive oil, 'Smoked Roast Beef', and 'Smoked Aqua Pazza of Natural Sea Bream'. While making the most of the ingredients' flavors, the smoky aroma of the smoking process adds a nice accent. All the dishes are exquisite!

Ninnaji Temple at Night: A Fantastical Night View to Be Passed Down to Future Generations

After enjoying the delicious smoked dishes, the two head to the World Heritage site [Ninnaji Temple]. Here, the quiet temple grounds are currently illuminated at night. This project was started as a way to preserve the scenery of Ninnaji Temple for future generations, and they are captivated by the fantastical night view.

"Otona Tabi Aruki Tabi" airs every Saturday at 6:30 PM. It is a travel program for "adults" where Kunihiko Mitamura walks through the places he visits, savoring local delicacies, fine wines, and scenery, and conveying his feelings from his interactions with local people.
