Kairi is a renovated old house located in the inland scenery of Awaji Island, where the traditional scenery remains. You can enjoy dishes that are carefully prepared one by one using local ingredients, tableware, and space that the owner is particular about, and the scenery will relax your mind. The owner is particular about using seasonal ingredients that correspond to the seasons of Awaji Island! As much as possible, he uses locally grown and locally harvested ingredients. He takes the time and effort to carefully arrange each dish with delicate care, using crops that have been grown with love and seafood that have been harvested with great effort and hard work. If he cannot get them, he himself goes to pick wild vegetables and makes tea. The owner's attention to detail can be felt not only in the ingredients, but also in the tableware, forks, knives, chopsticks, temperature and space to suit the dishes served. Also, Kairi does not have a set menu. He thinks about the local ingredients that are available at the time, so the menu is handwritten by the owner and posted at the entrance of Kairi every day. Looking out from the entrance, you can see the unspoiled scenery of the past. The interior of this old-fashioned house blends in with the scenery, and you can enjoy a relaxing time in a space that exudes the beauty of traditional Japan, with an irori hearth, a veranda, nostalgic yet beautiful patterned glass windows, and a transom at the top of the room that acts as a partition while letting in air and light.
