@djneilarmstrong here in #kyoto #japan for the #FRTakeover. I've been lucky to have few "once in a lifetime" eating experiences, and this was one of them. I ate Turtle at a 300 year old house/restaurant in kyoto. 17 generations have worked at this place, same menu, same recipe. The restaurant is called dai i chi . It doesn't advertise, and all of its patrons come here through word of mouth. You kinda have to know somebody who got the 'in'. Food snobbery even existed in feudal japan, who knew?

Turtle meat is believed to enrich your blood and cool your body and is also thought to encourage longevity and vitality.

the cost per person for this place is $240 US dollars, and for turtle soup fans it seems to be worth every penny. Their recipe is secret unfortunately so I have no idea what's in it, but if you got the connects and the money and want to try something that has been going on before yelp told you what to eat, add this to the bucket list.
