Ramen/Tsukemen place you better go when you are here. This tsukemen is surprisingly approachable. Just a few pieces of delicate motsu (giblets) in a heavy broth, served in an iron bowl. The noodles are made upstairs, topped with roasted as well as raw green onion. The store looks really gorgeous and real Kyoto Machiya style.
