Kaiseki drama at Nanzan GiroGiro

At the new kaiseki restaurant Nanzan GiroGiro, offering dinner as theatrical experience, a seven-course meal started with this green bean chawanmushi with uni and bonito gelee with dab of wasabi. It was my second favorite dish. My favorite wasn't photographed because I devoured it too fast. It was smoky grilled eggplant gelee in a crunchy sauce of pulverized dried shrimp frequently used in Chinese cooking, topped with okra. My review.
