Located near Karasuma-Oike Station, this restaurant is loved by both locals and travelers who seek authentic Kyoto-style dining with a touch of sophistication.

🍗 The Signature Dish – Oyakodon

Oyakodon, meaning “parent and child bowl,” features tender Kyoto Tamba chicken simmered in savory soy-based broth with fluffy eggs, served over warm rice.

The dish traces its origins back to the late 19th century in Tokyo, when a chef’s wife at the long-established restaurant Tamahide decided to pour the flavorful chicken-and-egg stew over rice.
In Kyoto, however, the dish evolved with a gentler taste — enhanced by Kyoto-style dashi and locally raised ingredients.
