MK Guide Recommends
Menya Inoichi, a recipient of the Michelin Bib Gourmand award, is renowned for its commitment to quality and flavor. The restaurant offers two signature ramen varieties: a light "white" soy sauce broth and a robust "black" soy sauce broth, both crafted from a harmonious blend of Rausu kombu and select dried seafood, eschewing the use of animal fats. The house-made noodles complement the broth, creating a balanced and satisfying dish. Patrons can enhance their experience with freshly shaved katsuobushi, adding depth to the umami-rich soup. The intimate 10-seat setting fosters a warm and inviting atmosphere, making it a must-visit destination for ramen enthusiasts seeking an authentic Kyoto culinary experience.
