KANAGAKI ROBUN
Our restaurant is a tribute to Japanese author, Kanagaki Robun, who wrote the seminal book, Seiyō ryōritsū in 1872. The book took inspiration from Western barbecue and introduced the concept of Yakiniku to Japan. A man of many talents, Robun also collaborated to create Japan’s first ever manga magazine. The hand-painted murals on our walls are a further nod to the enduring influence of his work.
