Kyoto, Japan｜Hidetako

Tucked away off the main street, you'll need to walk in a little on the ground floor but once you do that it's hard to miss the obvious late night takoyaki setup. My visit on a Wednesday had a full house, they can probably fit 9, maybe 10 people around the only counter. Takoyaki comes out with nice crisp on the outside and I had mine with the soupy thing that justs adds a little depth and flavour to it, something you get in the Kansai area, if you haven't before I recommend it. I ordered house beer by saying biiru, keep it simple, this defaults to asahi here. Anyway, service was friendly for foreigners and food was great, how awesome it is to get this quality of takoyaki after midnight! They even are a little dressed up I noticed, they take this seriously.

Wow! Delicious. Will absolutely have again.

Great place to try takoyaki, personnel is graeat and kind. Food is tasty and prices are reasonable, an order (8) is about ¥ 800
