Casually enjoy the Kawadoko at Takao's mountain teahouse [Togano Chaya]

This teahouse, which is perched on the Kiyotaki River and overlooks the original landscape of Takao and the clear waters of the Kiyotaki River from every seat, began when the grandmother of the first generation served tea to visitors to the Kozanji Temple. Many of the dishes are simple, such as udon and set menus, and it is also possible to order only coffee.

Enjoy dishes such as chicken miso udon noodle soup (1,300 yen) with lots of ingredients including tender Kyo wakamochi chicken, grilled rice cake, shimeji mushrooms, and seasonal vegetables, or the cool weather set meal (2,800 yen) with grilled sweetfish. You can go down the stairs next to the restaurant to get close to the river, so if you want to cool off during a stroll, be sure to stop by.
