Chugokusai Kakyu-Bou
With a title rooted in mysticism, this Minato restaurant honors its Chinese roots from from technique to serving ware.
Restaurant Details
The Chinese cuisine offered at Kakyu-Bou demonstrates that orthodoxy by no means equates with stagnation when it comes to the kitchen. This venue, located in Minato-ku, delights guests with the imported flavors of mainland China, using spices and vegetables that honor its regional cuisine.
Rather than experimenting with Japanese fusion or taking an innovative approach with inspiration, Chugokusai Kakyu-Bou leans on its legacy to present dishes that are firm in their culinary foundations. The name itself also comes from strong Chinese tradition, rooted in mysticism, taking the term Kakyu from a holy mountain, Mt. Haqiu, in Chinese legend and appending it with “Bou” the word for kitchen. Altogether, the name means “Kitchen of Mt. Huaqiu.”
While putting his individuality into each dish, Chugokusai Kakyu-Bou commits to the ingredients and expression of Chinese classics. He frequently incorporates fruits and serves such recognizable fare as stewed pork belly and chilled Chinese noodles when in season. Each meal in the classy but petite space also begins with a colorful arrangement of bite-sized appetizers filled with delicacies from China’s land and sea.
