In the charming streets of Pontocho, where Maiko and Geiko gracefully pass by, you'll find "Kyoto-style Authentic Udon," a restaurant that stands out from chain establishments with its rich flavors and delicately crafted dishes that will satisfy even the most discerning food lovers.

The dashi, which is the foundation of all dishes, is made from over ten carefully selected high-quality natural ingredients, including Rausu Kombu, Mejika, Saba, Niboshi, Urume, and Honkatsu. These ingredients are meticulously blended to match each dish.

The udon features a firm, medium-thin noodle that pairs perfectly with the dashi. In addition to udon, the menu offers a variety of side dishes and Saba sushi, making it a great spot for a drink in the evening, followed by a comforting bowl of udon.

For those looking for a special experience, the "Udon Sukiyaki Chidori Nabe" course requires a reservation and is available for groups of two or more.
