Kikusui - Kyoto

Unpleasant payment staff do not accept customers' change and have a bad attitude. smash the bill in front of the customer and ignore the customer's request. this is my worst experience in japan . I never want to come back here again .

Great breakfast and lunch. Staff can speak English. Located in the corner of the ShijoDori Bridge

'SUBARASHI ' On a beautiful Friday night during a cold winter, the bois and I where craving some western food in Japan, as we are westerners who adore Vegemite with flora low cholesterol buttered bread, so, we decided to head down to KikuSUI. Whilst the Bois were craving some steak, I decided to get some omurice. Once the steaming omurice had been delivered to the table by the assiduous staff members, I was astounded. Perhaps Even In Awe. This simple yet complex dish had far exceeded my understanding of the concept of life, as though I was within my mother 's womb ready to burst into life once again. This dish brought back something that I had lost so many years ago. Every bite of the warm richness of the fried rice wrapped enclosed by an unborn chicken brought memories of when my Father didn 't beat me with a spoon. These small fragments of memory that were released from my mind felt as though it was cured, as if the chicken egg had swathed those memories with tenderness and love. KikuSUI takes ingredients so basic, like monomers, and masters their craft so beautifully, to create polymers. The sensations dance smoothly en route as a collective to tie the entire experience together. In a nutshell (or should I say, in an eggshell), the staff are very serious with their work and they take pride with every step they perform. The young workers (assuming they are college students) took care of us throughout the whole session, refilled drinks (sometimes) and taking care of our needs. One bad thing I would say about them would be, their work ethic is far too good, we westerners tend to relish over any opportunity for slacking off. Hopefully your managers recognise the amount of working you guys are pushing forth day in and day out! 'ARIGATO ' P.S food was mid ngl, was cheap tho.

The place was located on the main road in front of the Minamiza theatre. We were about to watch a show there and grabbed lunch before that. The service here was on point. We ordered a grilled salmon set and half omelet fried rice. Both the dishes were perfect and the portion was exact. Food was delicious and ambiance was great. The staff can assist in English. Would definitely recommend for a quick lunch or dinner.

I liked the atmosphere and the food was unexpectedly good.
