The food we ate on the beautiful riverbed was very delicious!I went there with my child, and thank you for your kind support.The road to get there is narrow, so I think most people leave it in the parking lot and walk, but when going up, be careful not to pass pedestrians or cars.

I went to Kawadoko Lunch.Lunch along the river while feeling the pleasant breeze is the best! ️This time I had sukiyaki.The balance between the meat and warishita is good and it's delicious 🤗

I went to Kibune once.I went during Obon, which is probably the hottest time of the year.(By the way, I made a reservation from February in advance.)The prices have gone up a lot in the last few years, but Nakayoshi is still affordable.Once you get off at Kibuneguchi Station, a shuttle bus will come regularly and you can take it to the store.Since I had some time until the start time, I went to the nearby Kibune Shrine.Kawadoko is an image of a restaurant on the banks of a river, but the restaurant in Kibune actually has seats right above the river, so you can eat so close to the river that you can even touch your feet while eating.Kyoto Station and Kibuneguchi Station are hot, but it's strange. After all, it's cool near the river and there's shade from the trees.It feels so good.It's not cool, but it's not hot at all, so you can enjoy your meal comfortably.I came to Kifune for the atmosphere, but I was satisfied with the food at this restaurant!The salt-grilled sweetfish uses solid sweetfish, and the amount of salt is excellent ^^Sashimi and somen noodles are also delicious and perfect for summer meals.The only alcohol I have is beer + Alpha, but I don't drink that much! It doesn't feel like that, so it's enough.I had a very elegant time.However, the timing of the shuttle bus on the way back is a little tricky, so if you want to catch the right bus, you have to eat quickly, and if you get stuck, you have to wait quite a while for the next bus. .Other than that, it was a very satisfying Kibune experience!

You must try kawadoko (river dining experience). They offer omakase course lunch and also sukiyaki. I got the matsh course which was about 11,600 yen. I will admit that the food was OK, however, the entire experience of dining by the river is something you do not want to miss out on. Must dine here when visiting the kibune shrine.

I only used it in the evening, and it was the best seat, as there was a small waterfall right next to my seat.I ordered a special shabu-shabu menu, and the meat was delicious, the weather was cool, and I had a great time.

Kibune Kawadoko is a must-go!In Kyoto City, the temperature is 40 degrees in midsummer, but in the Kibune area, the temperature is 30 degrees, which is 10 degrees lower, making it a summer resort.It's still hot, but stepping into the river feels cool.I chose the bird-loving course. The local chicken was crunchy and delicious, and even had internal organs! !Ayu-yaki is reserved separately. I was able to eat it from head to tail and bones. It was delicious.It was great because I was able to relax after eating until it was time to pick up and drop off!Transfers are available to the nearest station at 12:30 and 16:30.There is a slope all the way to the store, so transportation is convenient.It is better not to use a taxi. The roads are narrow and there are few points where you can pass each other, so there is heavy traffic.The restroom is located inside the store across the street.You can also pay by card inside the store.
