Yasai Shokudo Oiyado — Restaurant in Kyoto

Muslim friendly stall near Kyoto University. Make sure you have made a reservation the day before to get a bento or eat halal food on that date. The place is quite small, run by a warm and sweet couple who were attentive to our food preferences, especially as we are Muslim.

They also have a reasonable take-away Obento for around 800 yen, though most meals are around 1,000 for a full course, including homemade dessert and coffee/tea. *Bike parking around back.
