When a tea ceremony was held at the tea room "Shokado" in Yaemon Kishi's Osaka Sakuranomiya (now Taikoen) residence, Yaemon later founded one of Japan's most famous restaurants, "Kiccho." It is said that it began when he ordered Teiichi Yuki, who was to become a master, to make a bento box for cha-kaiseki using the 'four-cut box' that Shojo Shokado liked.
After that, the Mainichi Shimbun picked up the dish as a "kicho appetizer,'' and it became a hot topic.
The name "Shokado" comes from Shojo Shokado, who was a priest at Takimotobo of Otokoyama Iwashimizu Hachimangu Shrine in the early Edo period.
In Sen no Rikyu's time, the word "tea" referred to koicha (thick tea), and only in the case of usucha (thin tea) is it described as specifically usucha or later usucha.
