Tosuiro Kiyamachi Main Store

Savor the umami and aroma of soybeans at Kiyamachi Sanjo's tofu restaurant [Dousuirou Kiyamachi Honten]

A townhouse from the Taisho era that stands in a narrow back alley. You can enjoy tofu dishes unique to Kyoto in a restaurant that retains the atmosphere of those days. The famous oboro tofu is made using a traditional method of adding natural bittern to 100% domestically produced soybeans. When you take a bite, you can feel the soft texture as well as the flavor, sweetness, and depth of the soybean.

The Takase River Course, priced at 8,000 yen, includes oboro tofu, nabe-style fresh wheat gluten, seasonal tofu dishes, and sashimi made with in-season fish (example). During May and September through October, the riverside dining area offers affordable tofu kaiseki meals exclusively for lunch, making it a great option for first-time visitors to this type of dining experience.
