Gion Duck Rice is a store specializing in traditional Japanese hitsumabushi duck rice. Of course we are particular about our Kishu duck, but not only! There are plenty of ways to enjoy our hitsumabushi, such as adding bonito flakes to the soup stock by using a dripper or trying out different flavors using our 3 special spices [sansho, yuzu, and black shichimi]. Our grape sansho is also known as « the green diamond » , the highest quality sansho in the world. Our duck is delicious on its own, but the refreshing aroma of the spices brings out the sweetness of its flavor. Enjoy the harmony of fragrant Japanese spices and duck meat. The hitsumabushi ends with dashi chazuke. Customers can prepare the bonito themselves and enjoy it with a richly aromatic dashi stock.
