Renovated Machiya: a Historic Residence of Kyoto
The interior was renovated from an over 80-year-old machiya and has a typical Kyoto atmosphere with a historic feel. An attractive point of the restaurant is also that it is located in a hidden corner along a narrow alleyway. There are counter seats on the first floor, where pots filled with obanzai food line up in the front, and table seats on the second floor.

Melty Simmered Pork Belly with Crumbling Meat
The "melty simmered pork belly" (700 yen) is pork belly meat cut in chunky pieces and a boiled egg simmered in a dense sauce until it is soft. As the name suggests, the meat is so soft it can easily be cut with chopsticks and the smoothness of the sauce and egg go perfectly well together in this signature dish.
