Kyoto Station Izakaya 'Kyomon Hachijo Exit Branch': Seasonal Kyoto Cuisine
Located just a few minutes’ walk from the Hachijo Exit of Kyoto Station, this restaurant places the ‘soul of Kyoto cuisine’ into its dashi broth. The name ‘Machishu Ryori Kyomon Hachijo Exit Branch’—where ‘Kyomon’ refers to things and flavors of Kyoto—reflects the shop’s goal of making authentic Kyoto flavors easily accessible.
The focus here is the dashi. Every year, they purchase a full year’s supply of premium natural Rishiri kombu from Kafuka in Hokkaido, pairing it with carefully selected bonito flakes to create a broth that is rich in umami without overpowering the ingredients. The shop calls this their ‘life-giving dashi.’ With this broth, everyday vegetables, tofu, and duck are transformed.
The signature dish is the ‘duck manju.’ Minced duck with a sweet and savory glaze is wrapped in a dough made of potato and nagaimo, deep-fried until crispy, and drizzled with a sauce made from their signature dashi. The first bite offers the aroma of the crust, followed by the savory sweetness of the duck and the lingering richness of the dashi; it is a must-order for many guests. Another frequently mentioned dish is the ‘tofu and yuba soy milk hot pot,’ where thick yuba and tofu are gently heated in soy milk, softening the dashi’s umami into a mild, comforting flavor.
Daily ‘o-banzai’ (Kyoto home-style side dishes) are also a highlight. Dishes like simmered eggplant, komatsuna with fried tofu, simmered pumpkin, and Kujo negi dishes change daily, all unified by the use of that signature dashi to bring out the natural flavors of the ingredients. You can order the ‘omakase five-kind platter’ to sample several seasonal vegetables at once. Sashimi features seasonal fish selected daily by the head chef at the market, available as single items or platters. Other staples include six-color nama-fu dengaku, dashi-maki tamago, and agedashi tofu, all representing solid, home-style Kyoto cooking.
For courses, there is the approximately nine-dish ‘Kaori course’ and the ten-dish ‘Yawaragi course,’ the latter of which includes additional meat dishes and matcha ice cream. Courses typically include appetizers, o-banzai, sashimi, grilled or fried dishes, a small hot pot, rice, and dessert, offering a comprehensive taste of the restaurant’s repertoire. The rice is Kinuhikari rice from Kyotango, cooked in an earthenware pot to ensure each grain is distinct.
With a Tabelog rating of approximately 3.45, the restaurant is defined by the presence of its dashi, the texture of the duck manju, and the seasonality of its o-banzai. It is a great choice near Kyoto Station for those wanting authentic Kyoto flavors without traveling deep into the city. Sit down, take a sip of the dashi made from Rishiri kombu and bonito flakes, and order a duck manju to understand why this shop puts its ‘life-giving dashi’ at the forefront.
