Here’s another comfy, little izakaya style restaurant in an old machiya building on Sanjo. There are lots of simple but tasty Japanese dishes to choose from here. Behold the food!
Appetizers. Unusually (but happily for me) none of them contained meat!
This Crab and tomato tartare was luscious…
Potato Salad with Mentaiko (marinated roe of pollack) – a very nice mix!
”Renkon no kinpira” – stir fried slices of lotus root.
“Kumoko no ponzu” – Cod milt in a ponzu (citrus based) sauce.
Shrimp and avocado baked in mayonnaise.
Spring rolls with oyster and winter vegetables.
Kinako (soybean) flavored ice cream with kuromitsu (brown sugar syrup).
Ushinohone Anaza is part of a group of restaurants established in Kyoto in 1985. They specialize in hot charcoal cooked dishes and seasonal obanzai ryori. The atmosphere is relaxed, spacious and welcoming.
This one sits on the north side of Sanjo in between Tominokoji and Yanaginobanba streets. You can find a map to it here.
