The Nishijin area is famous as the production center of Nishijin brocade, a traditional Kyoto craft. The Nishijin area is characterized by rows of machiya (traditional Kyoto townhouses) and an old-fashioned, elegant townscape.
The store owners, who love the area, will tell you about its charms. Let's go there to seek warm human connections and experience the goodness of Nishijin once again.
This community café supports the preservation and utilization of historic buildings. There is nothing formal about it, and it is a convenient place to stop by for a quick break during a stroll in Nishijin. In addition to rice flour pound cake, the café offers a winter-only drink menu including homemade honey ginger and honey yuzu tea. The space can also be rented for various events, so please ask the staff if you are interested.
Zenzai (Zenzai with rice cake) 700 yen. Two rice cakes with sweet potato will fill your stomach well. Served with roasted tea and salted kelp.
The owner of the restaurant is Umeha, a current geiko of Kamishichiken. She entertains guests in her beautiful kimono while traveling between the tatami room and the restaurant. Chef Sone, who spent seven years in Piedmont, Italy, serves hearty dishes that are sure to please any palate, day or night. Feel free to visit the restaurant even after a late start, such as for pasta after a banquet or a glass of Otsukare-sama wine after working late.
Pasta with fresh tomatoes and sansho oil: 1,870 yen. It was supposed to be a summer-only dish, but it has been promoted to a regular evening menu item due to its popularity. The aosa chips are also homemade.
