Traditional Sweet Dishes
Mochi
Kyoto mochi is traditionally pounded by hand at festivals, producing a glossy, elastic texture that symbolizes good fortune and community spirit.
Yatsuhashi
Yatsuhashi is a cinnamon-flavored Kyoto sweet shaped like a folded triangle, and the soft unbaked version wrapped around sweet red bean paste is a must-try local specialty.
Wagashi
Kyoto wagashi are miniature seasonal landscapes you can eat, crafted to mirror flowers, leaves and festivals and designed to complement the bitterness of matcha during tea ceremonies.
Traditional Savory Dishes
Kaiseki
Kaiseki in Kyoto is a poetic multi-course meal where each dish is arranged like a painting, highlighting one perfect seasonal ingredient and a delicate balance of taste and texture.
Yudofu
Yudofu is humble simmered tofu served near Kyoto temples, often enjoyed straight from the pot in a kelp-infused broth to celebrate simplicity, purity and the monk's palate.
Obanzai
Obanzai is Kyoto's home-style cooking, made from small, seasonal ingredients sourced within the city and prepared with techniques passed down through generations, it embodies sustainable, everyday elegance.
Traditional Beverages
Matcha
Kyoto's matcha, especially from Uji, is prized for its bright green color and savory umami, and in the tea ceremony it is whisked into a froth to create a meditative moment of flavor and focus.
Sake
In Kyoto's Fushimi district the soft groundwater creates silky, mellow sake, and centuries-old breweries still use traditional wooden fermentation methods to produce nuanced flavors.

Halpaa syötävää joka puolella kun eksyt, kaupat pelastivat meidät, pääosin tosi turvallista ja kohteliasta porukkaa, tippiä ei odoteta.

Varaa suositut ravintolat ajoissa ja tarkista verkosta museoiden sulkupäivät. Monet pienet museot ovat maanantaisin kiinni, suunnittele sen mukaan välttääksesi turhia matkoja.

Kyoto tuntui kuin astuisi toiseen aikakauteen, kauniita temppeleitä, ruoka on uskomatonta, odota tungosta suosituissa paikoissa mutta silti täysin sen arvoinen 4-5 yöksi.

Käy Arashiyaman bambumetsässä ennen klo 7 välttääksesi selfiejonot, ja tutustu sitten sivukaduille parempaa kahvia ja vähemmän turisteja varten.

Sateinen viikko meille, puutarhat näyttivät taianomaisilta tihkusateessa mutta paljon kävelyä märissä kengissä, kevät tai syksy olisivat parempia.
