efish
So we decided to pass up the more traditional eateries in Kyoto and follow the ones that Wallpaper* recommended. These tended to be more focused on design (with a more Western menu), which I’m not mad at. We stopped at efish, a cafe designed by Shin Nishibori.
I’m not the biggest fan of sitting in the ‘smoking’ section, but fortunately this afforded us a dope open-window view of the river that ran alongside. And by open-window, I mean really open. Like lean-forward-and-you’ll-fall-out-of-the-window-open.

And finally:
When I think of the word efish, I think of electronic fish. That’s all.
