"Try the traditional kyoto sweets" Kyoto Restaurant Tip by yukisanto

Kyoto Restaurants: 175 reviews and 217 photos

 
 

Tradtional kyoto sweets are a must try. It's made of red bean paste and artfully pressed into shapes to represent the seasons of the year. You can even see the chef making it at the counter if you want to. And no, you don't gulp it in one mouthful. you're supposed to use the toothpick-like stick to cut it and eat it daintly.

Comparison: about average
Price: less than US$10
Rating: 3
Theme: Japanese/Sushi
