What is Kaiseki Cuisine ?
Kaiseki cuisine is a style of traditional Japanese cuisine born from old Zen Buddhist traditions. Originally kaiseki cuisine was eaten before tea ceremonies to lessen the stimulation of matcha tea drunk during the ceremony.
The most fascinating part of kaiseki is the four seasons represented through the dishes. In kaiseki it is possible to feel the four seasons through the dishes and the plates and bowls they are served on. Kaiseki is the only cuisine style in the world this dedicated to replicating the four seasons on your plate.
