Teori Zushi' has dishes of Kyoto foodstuffs and tempura, and it's so beautiful, cute, fashionable that I feel pity for eating. In a comfortable restaurant, it would be unique and interesting for you to roll it by yourselves.◎There're three restaurants in the city and they're different each other. You need to check beforehand whether reservation is needed or not. Sorry, but under 12 years old children can't use the restaurant.

It seems like just a nowadays cafe, but the three cats are popular and some customers come from other regions to see them. These beautiful cats who have appeared in a cover of magazine, are not so friendly but don’t go away. Such a character is also attractive! If you're lucky, they may be seated close to you.◎It stands in residential area and the menu is substantial. The regular holiday is Wednesday, but you need check temporary closure in HP or SNS.

At the Inari Cafe near Fushimi Inari Taisha Shrine, a special menu will appear in collaboration with Arashiyama's popular store "Arashiyama Itsukichaya" from February. Compared to eating Kyoto-don, the set is a limited menu that can only be eaten here, such as ozoni using white miso, ankake-don with aburaage, and plump Saikyo-yaki-don. The scenery of the 2nd floor seats changes depending on the seats you sit on, and the benefits are different for each.

The yukhoe rice bowl is a comparison between meat tuna yukhoe, which is eaten with soy sauce like green onion tuna, and authentic yukhoe, which is entwined with the classic yukhoe sauce. The steak rice bowl is a comparison of eating two kinds of lean meat steaks that are filling yet light.

"Nishiki Obuya" is a Kyoto dashi chazuke specialty store that was reopened in March. You can enjoy several types of Ochazuke here. The two-tiered round bowl is cute. At this shop, seafood uses fresh ingredients selected by a fishmonger that has been in business for over 90 years. It's close to Nishiki Market, and it's also attractive that even one woman can easily enter it.
