2Kyoto Meat Shop HiroButcher shop deli · Kyoto4.2 (254)Open · until 7 PMMeat Shop Hiro, 2-10 Mibushujakucho, Nakagyo Ward, Kyoto, 604-8871, JapanCreator's voice- Beef Sushi · ¥990 — This almost raw beef sushi is incredibly juicy. Though seasoned only with salt and pepper, the flavor of the meat is incredible. The meat melts in your mouth, with no unpleasant odor, and the sauce and wasabi go perfectly with the rice.
- Beef Skewer · ¥990 — A piping hot, freshly cooked wagyu beef skewer. It's very juicy and super tender, seasoned simply with salt and pepper, allowing the incredible flavor of the meat to shine.
3Ochaya WarabimochiJapanese confectionery shop · Kyoto5.0 (201)Open · until 5 PMKyoto Kiyomizu Warabimochi monna, 6 Chome-538-25 Gojobashihigashi, Higashiyama Ward, Kyoto, 605-0846, JapanCreator's voice- Matcha Warabi Mochi on Matcha Ice Cream · ¥726 — This is the shop's most popular item. The warabi mochi comes in two pieces on a skewer. It's soft and jiggly, full of rich matcha flavor, filling your mouth with the taste of matcha. This dessert has the bitterness of tea with a slight sweetness. The matcha ice cream is quite sweet, but the texture is great, and even those who don't like strong matcha can probably enjoy the milder version.
4Nishiki Ichiba & Mamemono to TaiyakiDessert restaurant · Kyoto4.0 (223)Open · until 8 PMNishiki Ichiha & Mamemono to Taiyaki, 185-2 Higashiuoyacho, Nakagyo Ward, Kyoto, 604-8055, JapanCreator's voice- Taiyaki with Red Bean Paste and Butter · ¥440 — This taiyaki is special, with a shelf life of only 1 minute. Inside, along with the red bean paste, there's butter. You need to eat it quickly before the butter melts from the heat. The combination of the hot, melted butter with the sweet red bean paste, plus the crispy waffle, is absolutely amazing. The red bean paste is packed all the way to the edges of the waffle.
5Tempura TenshoTempura restaurant · Kyoto4.9 (7,411)Open · until 11 PMKyoto Tempura Ten no Meshi Gionhonten, 255 Gionmachi Kitagawa, Higashiyama Ward, Kyoto, 605-0073, JapanCreator's voice- Shrimp Tempura & Tamagoyaki Tempura · ¥1200 — The shrimp tempura has a crispy batter and plump shrimp inside. It's simply seasoned with salt, but since it's freshly fried, it's delicious. The tamagoyaki (rolled omelet) tempura is rare even in Japan. The omelet inside has a dashi (broth) flavor, and it's really tasty. The omelet itself would be good on its own, but adding the crispy tempura batter was genius.
6MaguroyaSeafood donburi restaurant · Kyoto4.4 (353)Closed · opens 5:30 PMMaguro Garage, 205 Higashimachi, Fushimi Ward, Kyoto, 612-8353, JapanCreator's voice- Tuna Nigiri Set (Otoro, Chutoro, Akami) · ¥1800 — This set includes otoro, chutoro, and akami tuna nigiri. I top the sushi with plenty of wasabi, but for those not used to wasabi, especially Westerners, I recommend starting with a smaller amount. Akami is the leanest part of the tuna. The fresh tuna and wasabi go perfectly together. Chutoro has more fat than akami. The sweet fat melts in your mouth, and the sweetness of the fat and the spiciness of the wasabi are a perfect match. Otoro, the king of sushi, has even more fat than chutoro, so it melts instantly in your mouth. It was so good, I finished it in no time. The teacup is cool!
