Having earned a Bib Gourmand in the Michelin Guide Tokyo in both 2015 and 2016, Soranoiro has fast become a popular destination for Tokyo’s ramen-loving ladies.
Soranoiro’s concept is to create health conscious, meat-free ramen that both men & women can enjoy without hesitation. The shop offers wholesome bowls of Chinese-style soba noodles, soy ramen, sho (salt) ramen, as well as their popular veggie ramen, all made with vegetable-based noodles, soup and toppingsー a first in Japan.

At "AU GAMIN DE TOKIO" you can enjoy teppan-grilled French cuisine that delights all your senses.
While the menu is based on French cuisine, each dish is created with a free-style flair. Using a thoughtful selection of seasonal ingredients, Chef Kinoshita creates his own original style of cuisine like a ‘mischievous boy’ーwhich is also the inspiration for the shop’s name.

Crispy dumplings, bursting with vegetables are the speciality of Gion’s famed gyoza shop, Hohei.
This beloved shop has over 700 clients on its delivery list, including tea houses and restaurants that are frequented by geisha & maiko. Since moving to Gion, Hohei has expanded its menu to include such dishes as clam soup, stir-fried meat with bean sprouts in miso sauce and onigiri rice balls. It’s new “eat-in” service at the shop has also become very popular. The thin-skinned bite-sized dumplings are filled with shredded vegetables and their slight sweetness goes well with both their standard sauce as well as miso sauce.

If you’re looking for a yakiniku (grilled meat) shop, Japan’s gourmet food bloggers all unanimously recommend Yoroniku, a famous restaurant that’s hidden in the stylish backstreets of Minami Aoyama.
The restaurant has a long history of serving dishes made with only the highest quality beef available on the market.
