Time for another eatery recommendation! Little Bamboo on Shirakawa Dori serves nice healthy organic foodage with whole grain brown rice cooked in yoghurt. The yoghurt gives the rice extra nutritional value; lots of those all important B vitamins, good for your skin, stomach… and lots of other bits I can’t remember. This is quite close to where I live (a 3 minute walk) so we’ve been going there quite a bit.
I’m afraid I forgot to take a pic of today’s lunch (sorry Rik). I was so hungry I just gobbled it all up… But here’s an artist’s impression:
All that for ￥900, eh? Take my word for it, it’s tasty, healthy and cheap and the master of the establishment is quite a friendly chap too. Here he is in his element:
He used to have a mobile healthy-fast-food van serving lunches in Osaka, but now he’s married and settled down in Kyoto. Little Bamboo as we know it opened for business just last year.
Little Bamboo is situated on Shirakawa Dori just past Mikage Dori. If you get as far as the bookshop you’ve gone too far. Anyway: RECOMMENDED.
The 梅 plum blossoms have started to bloom. These are near my house…

Hopefully, I’ll get a chance to go to 御所 this weekend and see the blossoms there.
And here as promised is the next video in the Whale/Love series:
Michael,
The healthy, veg-friendly restaurants are good and
all, don’t get me wrong, but aren’t there any Indian
restaurants with a nice little 3-curry buffet you could introduce us to?
Well, mate…
The best Indian restaraunt I’ve been to in Kyoto is Kerala on Kawaramachi, just south of Oike Dori on the right going south - 2nd floor.
Tasty.
