Of course the first thing on my to do list in Kyoto was food. I had researched ahead of time. Amazingly, we found this place very easily. A 500 year old Soba noodle shop that used to serve the Emperor! We had lunch - soba noodles in a light broth with tempura on the side and soba noodle sushi. It was so good! This is the first place I will go back to when I visit Kyoto again. The staff was very friendly, they had a well written English menu, good prices, and it wasn't at all touristy or crowded.
The second place wasn't as much of a hit. I liked it but Brian didn't. The dessert is shaved ice with a sweet green tea flavor (that's why its green), ice cream underneath the shaved ice and fruit on top, and chewy balls made from soybean (or taro?). It was sooo filling.
