I made a reservation and visited the restaurant. There are 4 counter seats on the first floor and 5 tables including Japanese-style seating on the second floor. By 6:30 pm, the restaurant was fully booked, so I recommend making a reservation. I was drawn to the restaurant because of the name "Amami," but they also incorporate plenty of Kyoto ingredients in their dishes. The sashimi made from fish caught in Awaji was excellent. They offer courses as well as a la carte options. I highly recommend the sesame tofu, shredded mountain pepper, sashimi of mackerel, amberjack, and trout, as well as the simmered sea bream and vinegar miso pork. The lotus root bun with chicken rice and oil noodles were also delicious. The owner is from Amami, and he uses vegetables from Kyoto in the simmered dishes, creating a blend of local ingredients with authentic flavors. There are many other items on the menu that I would like to try, so I plan to visit again.

Opened in December 2021 in Nakagyo-ku, Kyoto City, Kyoto Prefecture, in Hanayu-koji, is Kyoto Gohan Amami no Keihan Komoto. Located just off Shijo Street, heading north on Shinkyogoku, and turning right onto Hanayu-koji (one block down), you'll find the restaurant. Before visiting the Shosei-en Garden (Kikakutei) within the precincts of the main temple of the Jodo Shinshu Otani-ha sect (Higashi Hongan-ji), I stopped by for lunch. I took photos with all the dishes ready upon request. The meal started with water and two small side dishes, followed by sashimi, chicken rice, and tea at the end. The side dishes included nanohana (rapeseed flowers) with dried baby sardines and sansho pepper, a Kyoto-style dish that was very spring-like and refreshing. The duck ham was accompanied by simmered hakusai (Chinese cabbage), red-heart daikon radish, and yuzu. The sashimi surprised me—it was the first time I had such a generous serving of sashimi for lunch in Kyoto. The fish, including yokowa buri (young yellowtail) and sawara (Spanish mackerel), was sourced independently from Taiza, Kyotango City, providing fresh seafood. The portions were much larger than usual, with the buri having a thickness of over 1.7 millimeters. Despite being young fish, the buri was fatty and melted in the mouth, while the sawara was also delicious with its large cut. The rice was served in a wooden tea bowl, with a generous amount of rice equivalent to 2-3 bowls in the bowl. Topped with kinshi tamago (shredded omelet), shiitake mushrooms simmered in sweet soy sauce, shredded breast meat of Tanba Kokusan chicken, green onions, yuzu, Amami specialty green papaya pickles, and nori. The owner recommended pouring Tanba Kokusan chicken broth generously over the rice, as only the pickles and shiitake mushrooms had flavor. The rich broth had a slightly nostalgic taste and was easy to eat. The portions of rice and sashimi were so large that I struggled to finish, leaving some rice uneaten. I also enjoyed the Kikaijima orange soda, which was incredibly delicious and made me want more. Despite being busy, the owner and staff even saw me off. There is a lunch-only point card available. The lunch was so incredibly delicious that I revisited the restaurant later. This is the most cost-effective and highly recommended restaurant I have visited in Kyoto.

I originally intended to go to a different restaurant, but it was closed so I ended up at this neighboring place. I had heard about the chicken rice dish before, but this was my first time trying it. The main seating area seems to be on the second floor, but because I have some mobility issues, I opted to sit at the counter on the first floor. The menu provides detailed instructions on how to eat the dish, but the staff also kindly explained it to me. Before the main chicken rice dish, a small appetizer is served and it was deliciously seasoned. However, I was surprised by the amount of rice in the chicken rice dish. The portion was generous and the broth was flavorful, although I wished there were a bit more ingredients. Nevertheless, I left feeling satisfied. There are other menu options that come with the chicken rice, so I look forward to trying those as well. *I was so hungry that I ended up transferring the rice from the wooden container to the bowl before taking the photo.

I've always wanted to eat chicken rice ♡ After work in Kyoto, let's go♪ The shop is located a little off the shopping street and I was guided to the second floor. I sat at a table by myself. I had already decided on the menu. ⚫︎ Kyoto wild fish set 2000 yen Two small dishes, five sashimi, accompaniments, Amami chicken rice First, the accompaniments and two small dishes arrived! Potato soup, eggplant, duck, rolled dashi, a wonderful start. And then, five sashimi dishes. Yuba. In early summer style, with plum meat on the conger eel. The slices are thick and the atmosphere around is lively with sake and beer. And then, Amami chicken rice. Kyoto-grown Koshihikari rice in a box. Dashi, Tanba black chicken ingredients include rolled omelette, green onions, seaweed, shiitake mushrooms, shredded chicken, citrus, papaya soy sauce-marinated rice with ingredients topped with broth. In the past, I have had chicken rice a few times on business trips to Kagoshima, and I remember the broth being light. This time, it was made with Tanba black chicken broth. I felt like pouring ramen broth over rice because of its brown color.

I had been really curious about this restaurant for a while! So, since I was nearby, I decided to go check it out - Chicken rice, chicken rice - I'm so excited! Looking at the menu, I decided to order the chicken rice and the oyster fry as starters! For a la carte orders, it's 600 yen - what does that mean? If you order a set menu, you don't need to pay that, right? Oh, here comes the oyster fry! Wow, it's delicious! It's so good! And now, the chicken rice is here! First, I scoop the rice and add various toppings, then pour the broth over it - one bite and it's delicious! But, I wonder if I could make something similar at home? If the quality is about the same, then I could probably make something similar! So, would I go back to this restaurant? Maybe yes, maybe no...

I finally visited the Amami cuisine restaurant "Kogen" on Hanayu Koji Street. I had been curious about this place for a while. They offer a lunch set where you can add chicken rice. I tried the first oyster fry of the season, as well as a thick slice of sashimi made from natural fish from the Tango Peninsula. While the restaurant is known for its Amami Oshima local dishes, all the dishes were of high quality. I highly recommend this place for reasonably priced Japanese food in Kyoto. It was delicious!

I happened to find this restaurant while being a lunch refugee! [About the shop] - Opened in December 2021. - A place where you can casually enjoy Kyoto x Amami local cuisine. - The rich chicken broth made from boiling Tanba black chicken for about 3 days and the use of Shigaraki ware are the highlights. [Natural fish Saikyo-yaki set] ¥1,500 - "Huh?! Is this price for all this?!" It's so luxurious! - Each dish comes out like a course meal, and the presentation and plating are beautiful! - There is also a menu for just chicken rice, but it's definitely not enough, so the set is recommended. - The rice comes in an ohitsu (a wooden rice container) so it's for sharing! One ohitsu per person is good! There's too much broth left over... [Set of saury flavored fried and nama-fu (wheat gluten)] ¥2,000 - The fifth item is saury. - It's incredibly delicious! Impressive! - Crispy, flavorful, and not greasy. - The rest is the same. [Atmosphere of the shop] - A stylish exterior shop located a little off the beaten path from Shinkyogoku. - The interior is calming with a Kyoto-like atmosphere throughout. [Sakiti's point] - I happened to find it around 13:00 on a Sunday and luckily got in, but it seems like you can't get in without a reservation because there were so many people! - The staff at the restaurant are very lovely and heartwarming. - Whether you're alone, with friends or a couple, or with family, you can enjoy it widely.

I found a place to eat at Ikkyu-san and decided to go for the Amami chicken rice set which includes a meal for 5000 yen with 2 drinks for 4500 yen. The location is a bit difficult to find, but it's along Shijo Street from Shijo Kawaramachi, heading west towards Hanayu Koji shopping street where you need to make a right turn. The restaurant has changed a lot since the last time I visited, and it looks much cleaner now. I tried the seasonal appetizer which was a dish called "Oranda-ni" made with eggplant and sweet peppers. It was my first time hearing about this dish, and it was delicious. The main course included a sashimi platter with three types of fish, fried sanma fish wrapped in yuba, a seasonal soup, grilled Kyoto pork with seasonal vegetables, a special chicken rice dish made with Kyoto black chicken, and a matcha gateau chocolat for dessert. As I looked through the menu, I noticed place names like Ryucho, Yamato, and Uken which I recognized from Satsuma and Amami history. The chef, who is originally from Oshima, shared that he grew up in Amami City and trained there to create the dishes served in the restaurant. Overall, I felt the taste of Amami in the dishes I tried.

In August, we plan to have a meaty monthly project again, but before that, we will have a Chicken 10-match as a bridge. This time, it will be different from the usual fried chicken lunch topic, focusing on other chicken dishes. In the 2022 Chicken 10-match Part 2, we visited "Kyoto Gohan Amami no Torimeshi Komoto" in Kyoto's Kawaramachi area. We ordered the signature dish, Amami no Torimeshi, for 900 yen. It consisted of white rice (Kyoto's Koshihikari), broth (Tamba black chicken), shredded omelet, green onions, seaweed, shredded chicken, citrus, and papaya soy sauce.

Located a little off the bustling street of Shinjokoji, this quaint two-story restaurant in Kyoto caught my eye. My friend made a reservation for us, and we were seated at the special table right in front of the cooking area on the first floor. The chef is originally from Amami and honed his skills at a Kyoto restaurant for 26 years before opening this establishment in December last year. He personally selects all the ingredients with his own eyes and taste buds, and offers exquisite dishes at a reasonable price to customers. He even goes to fetch the water used in the restaurant himself. One thing that stood out among his many commitments was the lacquerware used. Enjoying a meal while admiring the beauty of traditional Japanese culture was truly a Kyoto experience! The meal started with: - Dried young sardines: A Kyoto classic. - Sesame tofu: Made with tapioca instead of kudzu, giving it a delightful chewy texture. Seafood bowl (a hidden menu item that you can enjoy if lucky enough to reserve in advance): My friend's lacquerware was colorful and round, while mine was a square lacquerware with delicate craftsmanship, showcasing the amazing skills of the artisan. Opening the lid, we were greeted with a sight of freshly delivered natural fish, five types neatly arranged like a treasure box of fish jewels. The sashimi was incredibly thick and fresh, with no hint of fishy smell. The bonito tataki was exceptionally delicious. We couldn't help but marvel at the size of the fish and the quality of the sashimi. The rice underneath the sashimi was exceptionally tasty, making us fully satisfied. For dessert, we were treated to a homemade matcha gâteau chocolat with a slightly bitter matcha flavor and a hint of sweetness in the cream. It was a delightful end to the meal. To our surprise, the bill came to only 900 yen per person. We couldn't believe it for the quality and quantity of food we had enjoyed in Kyoto. The place was bustling with customers of all ages, enjoying their meals and laughter filled the air. It was a satisfying and enjoyable lunch experience. Thank you so much! Next time, I would love to try the famous chicken rice bowl. I will definitely visit again. Thank you for a wonderful meal!

A restaurant run by a owner from Kagoshima and Amami Oshima, specializing in hospitality cuisine from Amami Oshima, with their signature dish being "Chicken Rice". During lunch, they offer Chicken Rice sets, and during dinner, they serve Chicken Rice kaiseki meals, allowing guests to enjoy authentic Japanese cuisine. The Chicken Rice is served in a local style where you add toppings to rice and pour soup over it. They use toppings like Green Papaya soy sauce pickles made from green papaya sourced from Amami Oshima, and soup made from Tanba Jidori chicken simmered for over 24 hours. They also use Fukuchiyama-grown Koshihikari rice cooked with water from Kyoto's underground source. The Kyoto Minato-sourced natural fish set I ordered (1500 yen) included Chicken Rice, two side dishes, and sashimi of natural fish sourced from Minato through a unique route. The sashimi of natural fish from Minato was extremely delicious. It consisted of thickly sliced Sawara, Katsuo tataki, Akou, and Suzuki, a luxurious selection. Enjoying the sashimi and Chicken Rice made for a happy lunch.

A new Japanese restaurant called Komoto Kyoto Gohan has opened in a street off Shinkyogoku Shopping Street called Hanayu-kouji. Their specialty is Amami chicken rice, which I had never tried before, so I decided to give it a try. The Amami chicken rice alone costs 900 yen, but if you add a tempura assortment, sashimi of natural fish, or grilled natural fish with Saikyo miso, it costs 1,500 yen. Adding Tajima beef steak raises the price to 2,700 yen. I opted for the set that came with sashimi of natural fish from Kyoto and it was incredibly fresh and delicious. The Amami chicken rice is served with a broth made from chicken, which has a slightly unique flavor that may not be to everyone's taste. I found that mixing half of the rice with the side dishes and then adding the broth at the end made for a more enjoyable meal. They also have a wide variety of dishes on their evening menu, so I look forward to visiting again for dinner!

I had chicken rice for the first time. It was delicious with a slightly sweet and tangy broth poured over it. The sashimi was fresh and thick, also delicious. The tempura was tasty too.

I visited for the first time at lunch. I had the Kyoto local fish set meal. The various fresh fish and chicken rice were delicious.

I tried chicken rice for the first time. The broth is like somen, it looks delicious even in ramen.

The food was delicious, but what stood out even more was the detailed explanations of the dishes by the male waiter and the friendly smile of the female staff. I definitely want to go back again.
