Che cosa è Kyoto?: Kyoto is a prefecture where culinary tradition and seasonal sensitivity shape an inviting, quietly refined dining culture. Visitors encounter kaiseki that highlights nuanced dashi, temple-inspired shojin cuisine, comforting yudofu, and homestyle obanzai that makes thoughtful use of Kyoto vegetables. The region is also associated with delicate wagashi and desserts featuring Uji matcha, while local sake from the Fushimi area is often paired to emphasize balance and aroma. Tucked into wooden townhouses and along calm lanes, many venues favor restrained presentation, attentive service, and harmony between tableware and ingredients. Markets and small producers encourage menus that shift with the calendar, keeping flavors closely tied to place and time. A distinctive thread in Kyoto’s food history is the interplay between courtly tastes and monastic discipline, which has long nurtured an appreciation for nuance over showiness. As a result, dining here often feels rooted yet evolving.

Kyoto's Kuruma-san has a great atmosphere!
Pizzeria Bar Napoli Kyoto Nishiki for lunch, and then wander around some more!
After walking around for a while, we met up with our friends!
They made reservations to eat here for the evening!
It's Kyoto Zen Kuruma!
Kuruma-san, you have a restaurant in Kyoto, too!
I'm so glad because it's my favorite store!
The store is about a 5 minute walk southeast from Hankyu Shijo-Karasuma station
Wow! It's amazingly elegant, tasteful, and very Kyoto-like!
They're renovating a 100 year old machiya!
I was surprised at the atmosphere when I entered the store!
Inside the restaurant, there are counter seats, table seats, and various private rooms.
It is a high-class restaurant like a ryotei (traditional Japanese restaurant).
As I wandered around, the owner showed me the various private rooms.
There was a private room with a garden view, a Western-style room, and a private room with tatami mats?
It was totally different from the restaurant in Osaka!
What a beautiful atmosphere, very Kyoto-like!
What we ordered was
Jitokko Chicken Thigh Tataki!
I can't get enough of the chewy texture of Jitokko chicken!
The rare texture is truly irresistible!
Chicken and Avocado with Wasabi Soy Sauce
This is another item I always order when I go to the car!
The chicken, avocado, and sweet soy sauce go so well together!
If you are a woman, I think you will love this!
Boiled Liver
This is another must-have!
This moist and creamy!
There is no smell at all, and the rare taste is really delicious!
You definitely can't make this by yourself!
Char-grilled Jitokko Jidori Chicken Thighs
This is another must-order!
The aroma from the charcoal gives the thighs a firm, chewy texture!
The yuzu kosho goes well with it!
Tsukune and Jitokko Chicken Tsukune!
The Tsukune is coated with sauce and deep-fried to perfection.
The outside is crispy and the inside is soft and fluffy!
The other tsukune is salted tsukune.
It is very fluffy and you can really taste the chicken flavor!
I seem to eat both every time!
To finish off the meal, I ordered the Jitokko Ramen!
The chicken broth is very well made, and it's extremely tasty!
I think it would definitely be good even if it was just a ramen restaurant!
The perfection is so high!
There are some places that have this ramen and some that don't!
If there were, I would almost always order this dish!
For dessert
Warabi rice cakes, pineapple yogurt ice cream, and thick pudding!
I'm glad that I can order a few of these when there are a lot of people!
The rice cake is made of real warabi flour, so it is very authentic!
The ice cream is made with yogurt, so it is refreshing!
The thick pudding is delicious with a strong egg taste!
The level of desserts is also very high!
I wish they would make a dessert shop for cars!
The food is consistent no matter which restaurant you go to!
The girls in the hall wore kimonos and were very graceful, and the atmosphere was very nice.
The food was better than usual!
I still like Kuruma-san!
Thank you for the food!
