- Summary:
- "Monk is the story of chef Yoshihiro Imai's fourteen-seat, seasonally inspired restaurant, set on the cherry blossom-lined Philosopher's Path in Kyoto. Through personal essays, recipes, and beautiful photography, Yoshihiro evokes the rituals that form his life in Kyoto and his deep connection to the fields of the nearby Ohara valley. He shares stories of the organic farmers, makers, and exceptional ingredients -- from foraged vegetables to wild herbs and flowers -- that inspire his omakase-style menu; describes why the wood-fired oven is central to the restaurant; and traces the evolution of the innovative and delicious pizza for which he is globally renowned"--Back cover.
