There is a Dotonbori food street next to the Shinsaibashi, with everything from high-end restaurants such as crabs and puffer fish to snacks such as octopus balls and Lamian Noodles.

Or, if you go from May to September, take the Kyosaka tram to the four stops in Kyoto Gion. After getting off the bus, Yachuan River is not far away. Shops along the river will have balconies. It is also a good choice to sit on the balcony and enjoy Japanese food while enjoying the night view of Yachuan, Kyoto.
