Yuba: Kyoto's Good Eats

There are many things to eat in Kyoto, but my hubby and I were determined to have a nice multi-course meal of yuba. Yuba is a paper-thin skin that's formed when warming soy milk. The texture is out of this world; silky, creamy, delicate yet firm when cooked right. There's not much flavor to it, you just enjoy the texture.

Yuba-sen is the name of the restaurant. Try it when you get a chance.
You can see them work in the kitchen from your table.
Everything is made with yuba! How beautiful and creative is this?

This restaurant was very close to Kiyomizu Temple, and the price was reasonable. If you are in Kyoto, you've got to try yuba at least once.
