There is no dress code but you already know about tatami and zabuton at Tawaraya. Short skirts and tight pants are not comfortable, I think. Minoya 94 Sueyoshicho Higashiyama-ku Oct 29th Thursday at 7pm Please contact us if there is anything we can do. Enjoy the rest of your trip! Mizuka 2016/09/26 cg t7:57, Karyna Shuliak Hi Mizuka, I forgot to ask what is the dress code for the tea house please? Thank you! Karyna. On Sep 26, 2016, at 10:07 PM, Mizuka Ito Hi Karyna! How about 7pm? > OS : wrote: EFTA00572449 2016/09/26 8:40, Joi Ito < > 7t J — 9 1: OK, we'll arrange the 29th. Keep the evening free. We'll get you instructions, etc. Basically, you will go, they will feed you. (Hopefully, you have no food allergies right?) You will be accompanied by geisha (In Kyoto, they are called "geiko") and Maiko who will hang out with you. After the meal, they will dance for you. You can ask them anything, about Kyoto, their lives, their art, food, etc. Many of them are very funny and interesting. Some don't speak English well, but some do. :-) - Joi On Sep 26, 2016, at 8:38 AM, Karyna Shuliak Hi Joi, Thank you so much for the offer, it is very kind of you! > wrote: Thursday the 29th would be perfect for us. Thank you very much!!! Karyna. P.S. I wanted to thank Mizuka again for the hotel recommendation in Kyoto, we just arrived today, it is such a special place..

Can you tell me what evenings you are free. Mizuka will try to arrange it. They have to do some arrangements. The best "typical" evening includes a dinner and then drinks with geisha and maiko including traditional Japanese dance. Does this sound good? Tell me which evenings you are available. Thanks! - Joi EFTA00572451
