Gorey Cafe - Kyoto

After reading the reviews of this site, I went out of the way to check it. it has a nice little cafe vibe and the owner was friendly. the food was in order; it was good pasta, but not at the level of the other reviews, imo.

Eating is amazing, epecially her pasta and the staff is very friendly! Moreover, eating is not expensive at all (800 for pasta).

I ate a soy cream and avocado pasta. it is amazing and they serve very full dishes for a good price.

For those who mourn the closure of tosca restaurant on Imadegawa-dori, here is a casual vegan restaurant and bar, with some music or dance evenings and an inviting ambiente. from 11 o'clock to 11 o'clock open, (except montages) only a few blocks from ginkakuji and the northern end of the path of the philosophs served the gorey cafetar there is a full bar, coffee or tee, some seasonal appetizers also, and each main dish comes with a small salad. the atmosphere is relaxed and friendly; eating is super fresh and professionally prepared. there is an English menu. there is a good choice of pasta dishes – we had soy milk with sweet pastas and coriander green pasta . both were delicious. other selections contain meerweed pasta, Japanese style, tomaten veg and avocado, and they can make them for a few hundred yen more super size.

I walked by this place after visiting Ginkakuji and decided to try it. I got the tomato and vegetable pasta and it came with a daikon salad. The portion was big and apparently you can increase it at no extra charge, which I did not know. The menu says they use vegetables grown in the Ohara region of Kyoto wherever possible. The pasta dish just used regular seminola pasta noodles, so I was not sure how healthy it was, but it tasted great! The vegetables were cooked to perfection. I do not really like daikon that much because it seems like a boring vegetable to me, but this was great! Although it was called a salad, I would have thought it was pickles. It was cut into cubes that were marinated with some sort of spice; I think oregano. It was crunchy, tangy, and far from boring. I only paid 700 yen. This was flat out the cheapest meal I had in Kyoto. If I lived here I am sure I would eat here all the time. I recommend this place to students, backpackers or anyone on a budget.
