Begin your day at the Maikoya Kyoto by having an authentic Japanese kimono breakfast. As you choose the design of your kimono and receive assistance in putting it on you will learn about Japanese traditions that date back to the mid-17th century. Not only is there delicious food, but you will also meet and have lunch with a genuine Maiko. Formally trained, a Maiko is educated in the ways of hospitality including the arts, serving food and drink, conversation, and entertainment Historically Tea Houses have been off limit to the general public. Only regular patrons and their guests were allowed inside to mix with the Maiko. However, thanks to Maikoya Kyoto now anyone can sample the culture and the cuisine. There is no better way to start the morning than with specially prepared breakfast delicacies while wearing a beautiful, comfortable kimono. The emphasis in Japan is always on the freshest of seasonal foods, and that includes the ingredients for a traditional Japanese breakfast. Enjoy miso soup, Japanese rolled eggs, Japanese rice and fried fish, and pickles for a taste experience you will not soon forget. The combination of the delicious food, gorgeous kimonos, the simple beauty of the Tea House, and the grace and charm of the Maiko will give you incredible memories that will last a lifetime.
