Kyoto Cuisine


Kyoto Cuisine

We check into the Rhiga Royal Hotel and clean up. After our long train ride she is ready to move around and explore. We decide to head back to Kyoto station since it was most convenient and offered the most with restaurants for lunch and shopping. We notice we haven't even once had sushi or sashimi since we got here so it becomes the next mission. We find a nice dark wood restaurant that seems to have a huge selection and are seated in a huge room with dark slat windows. We order a sashimi platter with miso, seaweed salad, pickled daikon and a couple of other cold dishes. El gets the tempura platter with basically the same sides as mine. I can't get myself to eat the octopus which El tries. Surprisingly she doesn't like the texture. I'm actually kinda shocked since she loves Unagi and squid. Bleck! If she doesn't like it there's no way in hell I'm gonna eat it. The tuna sashimis and squid are good though.
