Kyoto does a good job of doing what it does. That being said, if you've been to one Kyoto, you've been to them all. \n\nTepanaki (you know what I'm trying to spell here dont you?) tables, the Japanese dude lighting onion towers on fire on the table in front of you...taking pictures to put on your birthday mug...yes, its all the same. But its all good. Delicious actually. Never a bad meal have I eaten at Kyoto. \n\nNever have I not waited in a line as long as the nile either. \"But I have reservations!\" They dont care. Tell Lisa-Lipgloss to hurry her sweet cheeks up because they wont seat any of you until shes there. Pony up to the bar for some savory (and surprisingly super cheap) saki bombs while you wait, and you'll forget you actually came to eat. If you still have an urge to eat, do it right and get both sushi and a tepan-cooked meal...you'll be impressed and its not overpriced, you get a ton of food.\n\nBring your appetite, patience and your valet money and roll through Kyoto...the annoyances are worth your weight in sushi.
