When we arrived in Kyoto, after struggling to find a hotel (yes, we were young and foolhardy and had not booked one in advance), it was time for dinner. We had printed out the addresses of some highly recommended restos but speaking with our English language challenged doorman he more or less said "Why bother going there, there are lots of good restaurants at the train station basement".Slightly worried about dining underground we decided to check it out. We should have known better than to worry, the place was great. Not only did they have restaurants, they had specialty restaurants, one servings different kinds of noodles, another serving all different kinds of tonkatsu dishes (yup, you heard me right).
So next time you find yourself in Kyoto, don't wander too far for that "special" restaurant, just go to the train station, they serve great Japanese food . . . . . or do they just call it food in Japan?

I recognise the style of those plastic plates - they have the same ones in China :)
Those food plates were amazing, especially in a country where English is not spoken or where English menus aren't available .. . . like in Japan. You can guess how we ordered our food.
