YAYOI is a Japanese Teishoku restaurant that brings together the rich flavors of traditional Japanese cuisine with a touch of Western influence. With its roots dating back to 1886, YAYOI embodies the cultural fusion that occurred during Japan's Meiji Restoration in the 19th century. At YAYOI, Teishoku takes center stage.

Teishoku, meaning meal set, is a beloved aspect of everyday Japanese cuisine. Each Teishoku meal consists of a well-balanced combination of rice, soup, pickles, and main dishes featuring meat, fish, and vegetables. This thoughtful arrangement ensures a daily consumption of essential carbs, proteins, and vegetables.

The star of the meal is the specially milled rice, called Kinme-Mai, which plays a vital role in enhancing the flavors of the surrounding dishes. This premium rice retains the nutrients of brown rice while offering the delightful taste of white rice, thanks to a refined modern milling process. In contrast to Western cuisine, Teishoku presents all the dishes at once.

The unique dining style encourages diners to return to the rice with each dish, creating a versatile and enjoyable experience. Experience the harmonious blend of flavors at YAYOI and savor the beauty of a well-balanced meal
