Kyoto, Japan｜Hohoho-za

Wanted to enjoy omurice but avoid the overrated Kichi Kichi Omurice. Discovered this tiny place which had a nice vibe. Staff was friendly and welcoming, seated us immediately. Patient and helpful too! We knew what to order and just pointed to the items on the menu (which is in Japanese only). The pig tongue omurice was delightful..comes with tomato based rice, which had sliced capsicum in it, and the sauce had a distinct taste of red wine. Also ordered the pork belly curry rice which was tasty too..the meat melted in your mouth 😋. The toast with blue cheese was so good!! The blue cheese taste was subtle though... For dessert, I enjoyed the matcha ice cream the best...the azuki was nice too though the chocolate cake was average tasting only. There's a restroom on-site.

Little hole in the wall curry rice and omurice restaurant. Friendly service and menu has ice cream and chocolate cake for dessert. A little wall counter sells CDs, little knick knacks, etc. Had the omurice with heavy sauce (I think the protein was either braised beef or pork) - delicious. Cash only.

Came here the morning after a night out and the food was AMAZING. I felt like a new person. The curry was the best I’ve had (and I’m Indian), and the place has great vibes and chill music. My friends got the omurice and loved it as well!
