[2025 Uji Restaurant] Travel Guide for いとうきゅうえもん (Updated May)

#JanuaryGoodDestinations2025 When you come to Uji, the hometown of matcha, how can you miss matcha cuisine? After visiting the beautiful Byodo-in Temple, I wanted to go to Nakamura Tokichi for a cup of matcha, but it turned out to be too crowded, so I had to walk a little further, cross the Uji Bridge and come to the Uji main store of "Ito Kyuemon" to have lunch. After all, it is our main store, so there are quite a few people there on weekdays at noon. Fortunately, the store is large enough with many seats, and we were able to get a seat within five minutes of visiting the souvenir area. I ordered the seasonal hydrangea set meal, which is actually matcha crystal jelly ice cream. The green matcha flavor was changed to the colorful hydrangea flavor, and the color was very bright. The main dish is matcha ramen. The green noodles have a faint matcha aroma, and there is a wide and long piece of tofu skin, which is very long when picked up! The overall seasoning is relatively light, just for the atmosphere. The souvenir area is quite fun to visit, with a dazzling array of matcha products. #京都探店 #Uji抹茶 #伊藤久越門

Kyoto Uji can be said to be a paradise for matcha lovers. There is a famous matcha shop here that has been around for more than 180 years: Ito Kyuemon, which sells all kinds of matcha, including tea leaves, matcha brewing bags, various biscuits and desserts. I almost went crazy and bought a lot 👍🏻, which is a great souvenir ❤️🇯🇵 #美食 #foodie #日本 #京都 #宇治
