MUKU - Arashiyama Nakaoshitacho Menu

What to expect from the menu

At MUKU, expect a focused and harmonious menu centered on a single, heartwarming course meal served for both breakfast and lunch. The signature MUKU course features freshly cooked rice in a traditional rice kettle, paired with rich umami dashi and a selection of fresh Kyoto vegetables.

The menu highlights include a thoughtful variety of beans, house-made Japanese pickles, and original bonito flakes. Unique additions such as short-neck clam and seaweed tsukudani add depth to the flavors. Complement your meal with specialties like 鯛茶漬 (sea bream chazuke) for a delicate finish or enjoy revitalizing drinks like the ginger-plum vinegar beverage.

For those seeking drinks, MUKU offers a curated selection of local alcoholic options, including Junmai nigori sake and lightly sparkling Tamba white wine. Non-alcoholic choices like the crisp Hozugawa Yuzu Cider showcase pure, handpressed yuzu juice from Kyoto, free of artificial flavoring and coloring.

Each item reflects a commitment to simple, authentic ingredients and balanced flavors, inviting diners to savor the essence of Kyoto’s culinary tradition in every bite.
