LUDENS

A sukiya-style restaurant standing by the Togetsukyo Bridge, within Arashiyama Park. The "Oushukuzan," inspired by the box meals once used for apprentices in Kyoto's merchant houses, features a two-tiered box meal with eight seasonal delicacies on the upper tier and beautifully arranged seasonal simmered dishes in the pull-out lower tier, accompanied by mustard tofu, sashimi, grilled dishes, and soup. The menu changes monthly, reflecting the seasons, with lunch seats available from 6,800 yen.

It was founded in 1930. It is known for its homemade noodle tea soba, but from some point on, the taste of 1100 yen of Todon has spread through word of mouth, and it has become a specialty menu that can be lined up in the tourist season. It uses dashi soup for soba noodles, carefully taken with mackerel and kelp, and is finished with chicken and two eggs to be soft and soft-ripe.

Founding In 1902, a business travel specialty restaurant in charge of kaiseki cuisine at the tea party of the Sai Senke. The lunch box, which is called by the owner, Haruhiko Taira, "leads to the heart of tea without being conscious," has a seasonal feeling based on tea kaiseki. The wooden box contains beautifully hand-wrapped dishes, and the whole sharpness is also stunning. In addition to taking out stores, reservations can also be made at JR Kyoto Isetan and Kyoto Station Shinkansen.
