We took your advice and loved it. Some of the school group guides seem to have found it so there was a bit of a crowd, but nice to see the high school students eating something this good. I have forgotten the price but it was not high. I think you could have it with or without coffee? And thanks for the map, which is needed.

Wow! Great website! I wish I knew of it’s existence when I went to Kyoto last year – I’d undoubtedly have had a much richer food experience there..

Oh well – guess I have to go back (hooray!) get some tips for next time.

Hello Marc, Is that chicken soup sangetan? (sorry, that would probably be the Japanese name for it, not Korean) It is a whole spring chicken stuffed with rice and Chinese medicinal herbs. You eat the whole damn chicken — bones and all!! It has got to be one of the most amazing meals on earth. When I get a cold, I often go eat a bowl of sangetan, have a few beers, come home and go to bed. I think it helps. In Japan, sangetan is not cheap, maybe 20 – 30 dollars. You can get it in specialty shops and the Korean section at department store food courts, in a bag, just heat and eat. That is a bit cheaper, like 15 dollars or so.

Looks amazing. Oyako donburi is one of my favourite quick lunches. I think I’ve had a similar chicken soup once in Korea. It was white and creamy just like tonkotsu, except it was made with chicken.
