Uji, Kyoto, Japan｜トレヴェルディ

In an attempt to eat some salad after 10 days of Japanese food (albeit delicious) we went to this “Italian” place. It had 2 fixed menus, and the appetizer included a little salad! Better than nothing! However the appetizer was excellent with an espresso cup’s worth of fresh mushroom consommé and a dollop of ratatouille. The sausage pasta was delicately flavored and the focaccia bread 🍞 perfect to sop up the garlic broth. Recommended, and worth the stroll across the bridge from the main shopping street, Omotesando. Its Italian name is Tre Verdi, but don’t expect any jovial Italian owner running the place!

I went into this store looking for the discount ticket I got at a Keihan Railway mystery-solving event, and it turned out to be a great deal. The pasta is homemade sausage in tomato sauce. I don't know anything about sausage, but it smells good and has a lot of ingredients (vocabulary). The balance with the pasta is also very good. Scoop out the sauce with bread. The chocolate dessert was definitely a sweet that was unique to Uji.

All the dishes are authentic because of the owner chef who trained in Italy! Thank you for such a wonderful dinner!ヽ(*´∀`*)ﾉ
