Why You Should Visit

A two-day open-air food festival run by Kyoto Ryori Gijutsu Shinkokai, a group of Kyoto restaurant owner-chefs. Twenty-three booths line the Jingu-michi avenue in Okazaki Park, right in front of Heian Jingu, selling one-off dishes made with Kyoto-raised beef, pork and chicken along with local eggs, dairy and vegetables. Beer, wine and raclette cheese stalls round it out, and entry is free. A good fit if you want to graze through meat dishes from several Kyoto restaurants with the shrine gate as a backdrop.
