Kagetsu, Nagasaki

This restaurant was originally built in 1642. Its present physical appearance is nothing like the original, but still the owners and staff have the conviction that they are carrying on a tradition of excellent Nagasaki cuisine. The primarily wooden interior is simple but extremely refined and elegant. The ornate ceiling with its beautiful artwork may have you gazing up until your neck aches. The cuisine is Japanese, with variations influenced by Chinese and Portuguese. The set menus are elaborate (and expensive), but recommended, costing upwards of JPY10,000 for two, but you will never forget the dining experience. Even the "less expensive" meals run several thousand yen.
