2.You can only taste it here! Easy to eat and addictive taste!

This is the second restaurant to open in the world. The restaurant offers original cuisine that can only be enjoyed here, combining Singaporean-style Chinese cuisine with Japanese ingredients.
Seafood Beef Noodle wrapped in palm tree leaves is the chef's signature dish, a combination of three soups, including a white broth made with Kyoto duck, and multiple seafood broths such as sea bream, scallops, shrimp, and octopus. While the novelty of tasting beef noodle in a broth is a novelty, it also has a familiar flavor like chicken shiranyu, which naturally makes one's chopsticks go up and down despite the exotic nature of the dish.

Nok Kyoto Cuisine

Crispy Deep Fried Oyster with Lime Leaf Chili Sauce comes with pork rib radish soup, yodare chicken with spicy sesame sauce, seasonal vegetables, Kyoto pickles, and coconut dumplings with mango bean paste. Chinese tea is also included in the set for 2,200 yen.

The crispy fried prawns, the main dish of choice, are so large and plump that you hesitate to bite into them, and the crispy batter makes them irresistible. The spiciness of the lime leaf gives the dish a fresh feel different from the chili sauce you are accustomed to, but the lemon oil gives it a refreshing finish that will appeal to all tastes.
