Hi everyone, I visited Kyoto in 2017 and went to an izakaya that I loved so much. I’m back in Kyoto now and trying to find it again but haven’t had any luck—hoping someone here can help!
What I remember:
- The entrance was very narrow, and had the traditional look of lanterns
- It had two floors—downstairs had tables and seating around an open kitchen, upstairs had tatami seating
- The menu had pictures of the dishes, and I specifically remember fried gobo being on it
- I think it was part of a chain or at least had another location in Kyoto, but I’m not 100% sure
- It served mainly locals (at least on the few times I was there)
I know this can describe so many izakayas, but I still haven't found the one.
Any ideas? Would love to go back—thanks in advance! 🙂
