Miyako City Kintetsu Kyoto Station (Hotel above Kyoto Station)


Miyako City Kintetsu Kyoto Station is formerly known as Hotel Kintetsu Kyoto Station. We chose this hotel because it is conveniently located inside Kyoto Station building. Plus we are taking JR Kyoto Line for Osaka next morning.
📍 1st floor, Kyoto Station building (Between Atsy Road & Miyako Michi shopping malls)

Katsukura

🕔 Mon - Sun: 11.00 - 22.00
 📍  11F, The Cube

Katsukura is my favourite tonkotsu by far! The dish is cooked to perfection with its golden brown panko breaded crust, crunchy and not greasy. 

Moritaya

🕔 Mon - Sun: 11.00 - 22.00
 📍  11F, Isetan Department Store at JR Kyoto Station

Moritaya serve Kansai style sukiyaki - Pan fried the meat in beef fats then browned with sugar, continued by adding soy sauce, sugar and vegetables. 

I personally prefer Kanto style sukiyaki. Kansai style and Kanto style sukiyaki has different cooking techniques. For Kanto style, first prepare the warishita sauce, bring it to boil then simmer the meat and vegetables.

Ramen Koganeya

🕔 Mon - Sun: 11.00 - 22.00
 📍  B1F, Avanti Mall (Behind Kyoto Station)
