Kyoto, Japan｜Shimogamo Agehan

Enjoy delicious sake and appetizers and finish with kamameshi! The inside of the store has a nice and calm atmosphere.

I used to pass by and had been wondering about it for a long time, but on the way to visit Shimogamo Shrine, my mother and a long-awaited visit came true this time. I called to make a reservation on the day, but when I told them that I would be there in about 30 minutes, I was happy to hear that they would prepare the pot rice to be cooked just about that time! The interior of the store is simple but quiet, and the atmosphere was very relaxing. Above all, I thought that the quality of the food was very high, from the signature dish, Kamameshi, to the garnished grilled fish to the dashi-rolled egg. The sashimi is perfectly new, and the kamameshi is the best! It's been a long time since I've seen my elderly mother, who usually doesn't eat much, finish her meal, so I was happy. I was surprised when I saw the amount when I was checking out! It's a dish of this quality, with a little sweetness, and it's this price if you order a drink one by one. I found CP to be great. Of course, I promised to visit my mother again, but I also wanted to tell my friends about it. Thank you for the meal. This time I want to go at night too!
