Preparing Ingredients in Kyoto
Under a flat overcast sky, the narrow passage of a Kyoto machiya kitchen reveals a worker in a white apron adjusting a stack of copper pots on a steel counter. The dull metallic sheen of the cookware contrasts with the deep red lacquered wood of a nearby storage cabinet, which holds small tin containers. A tabby cat sits perched on a metal stool nearby, watching the preparation of lemongrass stalks. Bougainvillea spills over the low wooden window frame, adding a splash of vibrant pink to the muted gray daylight. The quiet efficiency of a traditional tea house or restaurant, where the textures of polished metal, smooth lacquer, and rough stone paving outside blend into a cohesive, lived-in workspace.
