Found in Gion, Kyoto! Hot broth poured over braised matsutake mushrooms [Gion Yamakishi]

July 01, 2023 open

[The restaurants affiliated with Tominokoji YAMAGISHI are all unique in their own way, with Nijo YAMAGISHI offering hot pot dishes and Tominokoji YAMAGISHI offering Japanese and Chinese izakaya cuisine.
The charm of the Gion branch, located on cobblestone pavement, is its udon menu for lunch, which is unlike any other restaurant.

Inside Gion Yamagishi

Choose your favorite udon from Kujo Negi Amagitsune, Yuba Udon, etc., with appetizer and boxed sushi for 1,800 yen and up. Udon noodles made in Shodoshima are available only in season, and in autumn, matsutake mushrooms, reminiscent of the bold cuisine of the main restaurant, make an appearance.
The aroma of matsutake mushrooms rises from the broth made from well water pumped at the main restaurant.
