CURRENCY CONVERTER
If you're yearning for a meal in a health-food restaurant, head to this very informal second-floor restaurant, down the street from the Museum of Kyoto and catercorner from the post office, which serves only one thing at lunch: a great lunch teishoku that came with genmae (brown rice), salad, miso soup, pickles, and a curry-based tofu stew with potatoes and carrots last time I was there. For dinner, vegetarian à-la-carte dishes are offered from a Japanese menu. Seating is at sturdy wooden tables hewn from Japanese cypress, and meals are served on tableware from local kilns. As befits a health-food restaurant, smoking is not allowed.

Lunch teishoku ¥800; dinner main courses ¥500-¥650. Open: Tues 11:30am-1pm, Wed-Fri 11:30am-2pm; Tues, Wed, Fri, and Sat 5-8:30pm (last order). Closed holidays. Credit Cards: No credit cards. Subway: Karasuma-Oike (3 min.).
