Why we point you here
One Michelin star Japanese cooking in Nara, worth the detour from Kyoto's well-charted routes.
Okada holds one Michelin star in Nara, a city better known for its temples than its tables. That alone should point you to something special—Japanese cooking executed with the kind of precision that makes a meal worth building a night around, especially if you're already planning to roam this ancient capital.
