On Saturday I went to Hiraganakan. This place is great. It’s two minutes from my house and just across the road from Kyoto University on Mikage Dori, so I guess the fact it caters for a lot of penniless students may explain the great value. For ¥1,200 yen you get a main course AND rice AND miso soup AND salad AND a drink. As Mike Joe said “Lots of STUFF!”. And it all tastes wonderful too. One draw back: it’s mostly meat so not good for true vegetarians, but for fish eaters like me the turbot is fantastic.

Five minutes later.

And a very satisfied customer…

Mike Lambe, you have a lot of blog entries about food. I don’t blame you though. I was eating like a pig when I was there, haha.
That’s right Mr. Joe. Food is a very good thing.
