la bûche （ラ ブッシュ）

la bûche is a restaurant located in Ohara, Kyoto. The name “la bûche” means “firewood” in French.

Ohara is my beloved hometown, where I was born and raised.

We offer wood-fired cuisine, featuring locally nurtured ingredients.

Our dishes are crafted with daily-changing vegetables, cage-free chicken, wild venison, and boar, aiming to create unique plates for each moment.

Additionally, we enhance our dishes with a selection of my favorite natural wines, primarily from France, each with its own unique character.

We hope you enjoy everything this land has to offer, from the journey to reach us, the air you breathe upon arrival, to the scenery that meets your eyes.
