Awajishima no Uta Fuunji” for fish, sashimi lunch and izakaya (Japanese style bar) near Kyoto City Hall
Awajishima no Uta Fuunji is located on Teramachi-dori, Oike-agaru, Kyoto, a 2-minute walk from Kyoto Shiyakusho-mae Station.
At night, it is an active izakaya (Japanese style bar), and during the day, it serves sashimi lunch, which is rare in this area.
I am not saying that this is a bad thing, but I really like this restaurant.
The only drawback is that it is a bit unappealing to the eye.
The area north of Oike-dori on Teramachi-dori is an elegant area with antique stores and Ippodo tea shop.
Yet, the exterior of “Songs of Awaji Island: Fuunji” is just as it should be.
The sign is sticky, as if it is trying to ruin the scenery, and it is also shabby from being exposed to the elements.
Draft beer 380 yen, cheap. At night, each table in the izakaya (Japanese style bar) is equipped with a grill set,
The onions (super sweet!) directly sent from Awaji Island, etc. are a pleasure. ), and more.
So, frankly speaking, I am totally grateful. Really, it’s all about looks!
After entering the old building, we finally came to the entrance of the restaurant.
It is dark even though it is noon. And even though it’s lunchtime, the most popular drink is sake.
The restaurant is mainly an izakaya (Japanese style bar) for the night, and it seems as if they are having lunch because they don’t want to waste their lunch time.
I don’t think girls would choose this restaurant for lunch.
Store interior. Subtle cleanliness.
It is often said that one of the criteria to judge whether a restaurant is good or not is that the customers cannot see the cardboard boxes of foodstuffs.
In that sense, this restaurant is completely out of the question.
However, if I interpret it in a positive way, the layout and atmosphere of this restaurant may be reminiscent of a restaurant in a fishing town or fish market.
The floor is made of concrete as it is, and posters of beverage manufacturers are plastered all over the place,
The wooden tables and chairs look like they could be found in a diner attached to a fish market where fishermen eat after the auction.
In this sense, the pursuit of reality is amazing.
And for lunch, the sashimi set meal!
Sashimi lunches are rare in this area, so I had no hesitation in choosing it.
And 950 yen is cheap.
Two small bowls of cooked food are also included.
The sashimi also includes hamo, a premium ingredient!
What an affordable way to enjoy the taste of summer in Kyoto!
There is also salmon, yellowtail, squid, octopus and quite a lot of variety.
It’s a pity there’s no tuna, but the line-up is more than enough.
The salmon and yellowtail were both fatty and tasty!
And to be honest, the taste itself satisfies me every time. It’s a nice, friendly restaurant.
So, I wrote about the dirtiness of the restaurant in the first half, but you can really turn a blind eye to that much at all.
It’s a good hiding place and a good hole-in-the-wall restaurant.
Songs of Awaji Island, Fuunji.
