El tofu que te cambia la vida

Visitar los restaurantes de Yukiko Uno siempre es para estar de enhorabuena. En UNO RAMEN - Sanjo se cuidan los detalles, tanto es así que tendrás que hacer la «ceremonia japonesa» del primer al último paso. Por ello, tienes que dejar los zapatos en unas curiosas y bonitas cajetillas, con la mesa asignada y sentado en el tatami te explican el funcionamiento del restaurante, recibes tus cubiertos y así es como te dispones a comer. Itadakimasu!

Allí se comió, y de qué manera. Pude degustar varios platos compartidos; sin saberlo fue de peor a mejor. El listado empieza por las croquetas Okara junto a otra croqueta con bolas de «carne» hechas de soja y base de curry con arroz, los noodles Dandan Gekka y el tofu de la casa. Y aquí hay que parar, hacer una mención aparte. El tofu que se «sirve» es el mejor que he probado en mi vida. El entrecomillado de servir se debe a que ese tofu lo preparas tú mismo, un experimento que lejos de salir mal, te prepara para llevarte una de las mejores experiencias que este país puede ofrecerte. A fuego lento se cocina con sus propias especias y ya una vez fermentado a la boca directo: una sensación verdaderamente ascética. Cuando volví al mundo terrenal añadí un postre a la cuenta: un sucedáneo de flan de chocolate verdaderamente exquisito. Mención adicional merece el espacio del local en su totalidad: comedor estrícticamente tradicional, con decoración inigualable y un patio que invita a pasar allí todo el tiempo que quieras.

De todos los restaurantes que he visitado en Japón hasta la fecha, este fue seguramente en el que tuve una comida más redonda: del barrio de Gion siempre recordaré este tofu único, el ambiente distendido y un servicio de cinco estrellas (a pesar de las barreras idiomáticas). ¡Larga vida a Yukiko!

餐點蠻好吃的,但是純素者要確認是否有五腥

豆乳拉麵蠻好吃的,但是炸餃子有五腥,可樂餅也有點五辛的味道,猜測可能和炸餃子用同一鍋油的關係,東方純素者要特別注意。

Pros: 豆乳拉麵

Different taste than other Ramen

It tasted different than all Ramen we had before, my boyfriend LOVED it, I think I have to get used to it but it was good. The rice with cheese sadly tasted burnt.

Izakaya molto carino

Ristorante in classico stile giapponese, si può mangiare seduti per terra o in una bellissima saletta privata, ramen buono, possibilità di provare anche sushi vegan, bella anche l idea del tofu da far fare ai clienti.

If visiting Kyoto, this is the place that one cannot miss.

One of the vegan restaurant open over the new year and I had to personally find out for myself why they also received Happycow Award. Went there for dinner after visiting Kiyomizu Dera. Here's my rating:

Okara Croquette - Evenly fried, hot, soft and mushy on the inside, love the contrast.

Ramen HANA - Is a very natural soup ramen that doesn't feel like I am missing out even without the bone broth. It has its own depth that I myself can't help but be amazed that unique aftertaste can leave an unforgettable impression, it's like it has it's own signature taste that is unique to it's own brand.

Vegan Sushi - Simply delicious!

I appreciate very much they were open during the new years when many vegan/vegetarian establishment had rest days.
 

Pros: Feels at home, Appreciate the South Asian and East Asian Staffs, It has it's own signature ramen broth taste.

Köstliches Rahmen!!

Endlich Rahmen in Japan essen können! Sehr leckere Nudeln. Mit zwei Gyozas, Soja Cuisine und Pilz-Suppe mit Sojamilch angedickt. Gemüse und Tofu. Einfach köstlich. Preis teurer als anderes Rahmen. Habe 2300 yen gezahlt gab auch noch welche für 3500 yen. Hat sich dennoch sehr gelohnt. Denke aber man könnte es auch für 1800-2000 yen anbieten.

Great sushi

There are very few sushi options, so my goal was to eat ALL THE SUSHI. It didn’t disappoint.

My husband had the ramen and the Homemade Tofu which you cook yourself.

Great atmosphere, servers, and food. Just great.

The best Ramen of my life

This place is a true gem 💎
From the moment you step inside, it feels like entering another ancient world: calm, atmospheric, and almost magical.
The food is exceptionally good. I would honestly say it was the best meal of my life. Every bite was unforgettable and prepared with incredible care and skill.
The service was unbelievably kind and attentive. I felt genuinely cared for and completely at ease throughout the entire experience.
A place I will remember for a long time and wholeheartedly recommend.

Pros: Food, Service, Ambience

Very traditional

Very near Gion, we found this vegan place. They don't seem to have "veganized" the dishes, but rather conceived them vegan from the start.

The ramen was good. The fried gyozas where truly amazing. The tea was quite nice and the dessert was quite good as well.

Note that for the ramen, they also give you a number of spices as to make it suit your taste. You can always just not use them and the dish will be just fine.

Also, one of the most important aspects of this restaurann was the place itself. Traditionally decorated, tatamis, low tables and such. I would highly advise to get a reservation beforehand to ensure you have the best tables though. We had no trouble, but during high-demand hours, I would assume the reservations are important.

Pros: Gyozas were amazing, Top-tier decoration

Cons: A bit on the more expensive side

Don’t miss this experience!

While I’m only on day 2 of my trip to Japan, I anticipate this restaurant will be a highlight. I went with a group of 6 (I’m vegan and my partner is vegetarian but everyone else in our party eats fish), and we all loved it. We shared several of the sushi dishes and the gyoza and each got a ramen. Everything was incredible! Even though we were stuffed, we couldn’t miss out on dessert and my matcha truffle was worth it!

Pathetic service

Gekka Dandan spicy sesame based ramen, curry rice with a soy free hamburger patty, and gyoza were all pretty average.
The Sakura cocktail with soy milk whipped cream and the matcha soy were good, especially the Sakura cocktail, which had a refreshingly unique taste.
The strawberry shortcake was delicious, and the matcha truffle was average.

They offered us a spice box even though we clearly said no. We expect Japanese food at a Japanese restaurant, not tikka masala. If other people expect that, it’s their problem. If you’re confident in your food, you wouldn’t ask customers to modify it.

Ramen with make your own tofu

We were lucky and were seated without a reservation. We sat at one of two horigotatsu tables that have a recess for your legs. The specialty of this place is do it yourself tofu making - you mix the ingredients and cook it for 10 minutes at your table, and add seasoning to suit. It works. Their ramen and dandan noodles were very good, as were the sesame pudding and yuzu brulee desserts. The presentation and ambience were lovely.

Average

I dont understand much the fuss with this place, the food is ok but far from amazing. I give it credit that its vegan and therefore should deserve extra credit, but the ramen is just not that good. The sushi is again average and I saw the kitchen opening things from packages and serving it directly into a plate, named tofu, coffee and a type of dessert.

The place is absolutely stunning and the food was overall pretty good. I don’t eat gluten-free food by choice, but the ramen and dessert were very good. Konjac noodles aren’t usually enjoyable for me, but the pairing with the creamy ramen made it great. The cake and matcha ice cream were my favorite

It is rather expensive — spent $40 on ramen, a sushi roll, a cake and matcha ice cream. However, given that it is a novelty for the trip, I don’t regret it whatsoever

This is the first place in Japan where I could actually try vegan nigiris. Ramen is delicious as well. Make sure to leave room for dessert, creme brulee is a must try.

Insomma

L'ambiente è davvero molto bello, le persone gentilissime, peccato che si siano scordati una delle pietanza che avevamo ordinato e ormai eravamo seduti a tavola da più di un'ora quindi non avevamo più voglia di aspettare ancora per la cottura, abbiamo mangiato solo queste tre cose in foto... una lentezza pazzesca tra uno e l'altro...
se avessero portato più rapidamente le altre portate avremmo chiesto prima ma appunto dato i tempi credevamo fosse regolare per loro

La crema catalana purtroppo non ci è piaciuta granchè
3570 per 3 tipi di sushi e crema catalana... niente da bere, prezzi davvero troppo alti, considerando anche l'errore soprattutto

My whole family was able to eat at this gem of a place. We made our own tofu which the kids loved. Croquettes, ramen. Vegan sushi, gyoza! All so good. The Zen garden next to the bathroom was quite lovely as well.

Quasi al top

Diamo stati a cena ieri sera, ristorante molto carino, in perfetto stile Giappo,si mangia seduti sul tatami.
Io e mia moglie abbiamo provato 2 tipi diversi di ramen, il sushi e un dolce.
I ramen molto buoni entrambi, il sushi non ci ha fatto impazzire mentre il dolce(una sorta di crema catalana con del matcha) era buonissima! Concluso con un ottimo saké (matsumoto).
Unico punto di caduta forse è stato il conto, un po' sopra la media a mio avviso, detto ciò vale la pena andarci.

Pros: Saké, Ramen, Dolce

Cons: Conto sopra la media, Sushi
