Story & Recommendation
A pioneer of Kyoto Tsukemen
Syakariki is a restaurant, a 10-minute walk from JR Nijo Station, serving Tsukemen, Ramen. This restaurant is known for its seafood Tsukemen, featuring mixed with thick noodles with lots of body. While the Ramen is also good, you should try the Tsukemen if it's your first time here.
“Tsukemen” is essentially a type of Ramen in which the noodles and tsukejiru (dipping soup) are kept separate, and the noodles are dipped in the soup before eating, similar to zarusoba. The soup (tsukejiru) is often more strongly flavored than regular ramen.
Syakariki is something of a pioneer among Tsukemen restaurants in Kyoto, and is still the most popular of such restaurants. You should definitely pay a visit if you like Tsukemen.
