I know Kyoto is famous for their soy products so I was looking around online and I saw soy milk ramen. Someone who likes to try new stuff will go for sure.
It was located somewhat out of nowhere. We took a taxi there and it was located inside this quiet neighbour.
It's a tiny place and it was empty. We were the only ones there. When we were about to leave, these Caucasian came in. I guess this place is more for foreigners?
Service was good but they over charged me and I had to talk to them about it. It took them quite some time to make the food. I guess made to order, more fresh?
I ordered the medium size non spicy tantanmen style of soybean meat ($950 yen), thick noodle with rich soup ($50).
The soymilk soup was thick so it sticks to the ramen nicely but it didn't taste like soy milk to me. It's more like sesame. I was actually expecting soy milk. Other than that it had enough flavour, not bad.
It's vegan so the meat were from fried bean curd I think, not bad.
Ramen noodle in Japan seem different compared to Vancouver, it's thinner.
No I won't go back again. Not because they are not good but location was out of nowhere, hard to get to. There isn't anything else I want to try from them anyways.
Heads up, you have to take off your shoes before you enter. Make sure no smelly socks with holes hehe.
