Since 1947, this time-worn shop has served a medium-weight pork broth with dark soy (shoyu). They have a tasty assortment of pastes, spices and oils to play around with. Eat the first part of the bowl as served, then try the condiments. This fine example of tonkotsu is located just a five-minute walk from the Kyoto train station.
