Miki Keiran
×Dashimaki Tamago
Why you must eat itA Kyoto dashimaki is carried by dashi, not sugar. Miki Keiran soaks its roll with first-run stock and rolls it soft, so the cut face weeps broth. It is a different thing from the sweet thick omelette of Kanto — the dashi scent rises first, the egg's sweetness follows. Best while warm: buy a slice at the market stall and eat it there. It firms up as it cools, so many take it home as a souvenir.
A specialist in eggs and rolled omelette midway along Nishiki, around Tominokoji. It handles the eggs professional cooks buy, and grills dashimaki all day as its most-ordered staple. Besides the whole roll, cut pieces sit ready for eating on the go. It keeps the benchmark taste of the dashi-rich omelette that Kyoto home cooking and obanzai cannot do without.
