KAWAYUKA(summer night dining) by The Kamogawa River
Every year from May to September, restaurants overlooking the Kamogawa river's western bank from Nijo-dori street to Gojo-dori street do a special eventーーthey set up open-air dining areas called KAWAYUKA to catch the cool river breezes, which you can enjoy with a delicious, romantic Kyoto-style dining.
I went to one of them last week, tried a really nice OBANZAI(Kyoto home-made style foods, the main ingredients are vegetable...s and tofu) set within 2000JPY. So delicious that I even forgot to take a picture of KAWAYUKA..., but I do remembered to take the pictures of the dishes! hehe..
I really recommend you to try KAWAYUKA if you visit Kyoto in summer season, especially the OBANZAI restaurants. It must be one of the best way to taste Kyoto's summer!
鴨川納涼床
每年五月到九月,沿著鴨川二条到四条之間的河畔,許多餐廳會搭起「納涼床NOURYOYUKA / 川床KAWAYUKA」,讓客人在夏夜晚風中享受浪漫晚餐。
納涼床/川床是從餐廳陽台朝鴨川擴充出去的露天平台,隨著餐廳形式各異,納涼床有西式桌椅,也有日式塌塌米。也許因為京都夏天是有名的溽暑,人們喜歡在傍晚時分來到納涼床享用美食、啤酒,讓自然涼風吹去一身暑氣與疲憊。
上個禮拜我造訪了一家法日混血料理餐廳的納涼床,他們的OBANZAI料理真是棒極了! OBANZAI是京都特有的家常料理稱呼,以蔬菜、豆腐為主,食材簡單但精心調製,吃完不會感覺負擔卻又好滿足,好吃到我忘記拍納涼床的照片...
如果你將在這個夏天造訪京都,不妨試試期間限定、絕對可以飽嚐京都夏季風情的納涼床。
