Torokko

Kawagoe is famed for its sweet potatoes, which dominate the ‘mini-kaiseki’ tasting menu at this unique restaurant. The singularly focused meal begins with a potato cocktail (or potato tea), includes spuds in fried, stewed and boiled forms, and ends with a serving of sweet potato ice cream. Note that the mini-kaiseki is only available between 11.45am and 3pm (or until ingredients run out).
