I heard there was a smoked food specialty shop in Joyo, so I went! The moment I entered the shop, a nice smoky aroma~♪ The music was jazz. They also do eat-in for lunch, and I'm very curious about the smoked curry💦 But my goal for the day was the smoked mackerel sandwich✨ I went to get it for takeout for dinner! They say if you call about 15 minutes before arriving at the shop, you can get it right away😆 Since it was my first time, I ordered at the shop and browsed other items. The products aren't displayed in the shop, but are on the menu list. If you tell them what you're interested in, they will bring everything out to show you. There were so many things I was curious about, I ended up buying a lot😆 Smoked Kaki-pi 400 yen, Smoked cheese 3-flavor comparison 400 yen, Smoked egg (2 pieces) 300 yen, Smoked baked cheesecake 380 yen, Smoked cheese manju 200 yen. Excited to eat them at home♪ And the long-awaited Smoked mackerel sandwich♪ (500 yen) and for my husband who doesn't like fish, Smoked Kyoto duck loin sandwich✨ (800 yen). It's huge😳 This is enough for dinner♪ Got home and opened it right away♪ The moment I opened the wrapper, the aroma was amazing♪ Lots of tartar and it looks delicious~✨ By the way, the egg used for the tartar is also smoked❗️ And they say they make it specifically to match the tartar, separate from the smoked eggs sold⤴︎😆 Let's eat♪ The smoky feeling is crazy~ not just faint, but it hits you! Since I like mackerel sandwiches and smoked food, it's naturally delicious! But the Kyoto duck loin sandwich is even better! It's tender and the smoky flavor has soaked in. Next, the smoked foods eaten on another day~♪ Looks delicious! Smoked egg, the yolk is amazing! It has a melty texture and is sweet. It's like swimming in a pool of yolk~🐬 Kaki-pi: Delicious. More about enjoying the aroma than the taste. 3 types of cheese: Plain -> The smoky flavor hits you afterwards! The smoky flavor is rich! Basil -> This has a unique taste that some might like and others might not. Black pepper -> So good! The combination of smoke x cheese x black pepper is incredible! Someone bring me a highball❗️ Moving on to dessert✨ Cheese manju: Strong smoky flavor! I thought it would go well with alcohol because it's smoked cheese, but there's a gentle sweetness afterwards. I want to drink this with Japanese tea. Cheesecake: The smoky flavor is weaker than the manju, but the smoke brings out the sweetness, it's delicious. I ate it all at once😅 If I'm nearby, I want to buy the smoked eggs and cheese again~ Also, I wish they would sell just the tartar sauce😆 Many people say that, but apparently they don't sell it.

I had cheesecake at the smoked food shop. The savory flavor was delicious! Since I was there, I also bought smoked peanuts and smoked pistachios as souvenirs. It's a bit expensive for the amount, but considering the effort of smoking, it's probably about right. I haven't eaten them yet, but I'm looking forward to them as they will surely go well with alcohol or wine. The shop is small and feels calm. Next time I want to try the mackerel sandwich or duck sandwich for lunch!!

At this smoked food shop in Kyoto, you can enjoy various smoked ingredients starting from classic cheese, sausages, to salmon. Apparently, if you go to the shop, there is an eat-in space. I learned about this cheese from a hometown tax return gift. It's a set of smoked cheese containing 4 types of flavors. Among them, the smoked camembert cheese turned into a luxurious cheese with the combination of the cheese's own flavor and the aroma of wood chips. If I have the chance, I would like to shop at the store.

Besides the lunch limited to 10 servings per day, there are also curry and smoked fish, so next time I will order fish. Although it's not on the menu, they said it's possible to order just rice. The price hasn't been decided yet. This time, besides lunch, I also ate smoked tofu and mentaiko with shiso leaves on top. The rich and mellow taste seems to go well with alcohol. Both smoked mentaiko and tofu can be taken out.

Arrived on a weekday at 14:30. Inside the shop, there were only two women who seemed to be there for coverage. The sign in front of the shop said open, so I checked if I could eat inside. Lunch is until 14:00, so they said if it's a sandwich it's okay, so I ordered a sandwich. Because it was hot, I wanted to order a drink but there was no menu list. I also wanted to eat one smoked food item, but the atmosphere didn't allow me to ask because they were busy with the coverage. Even though those two women had two iced coffees. While waiting for the sandwich, those two women walked around the shop talking and taking photos. Because the shop is narrow, it was very annoying and bothersome. After waiting for about 15 minutes and just as the sandwich was coming out, the woman said "perfect, let me take a picture" and took pictures of the shop owner holding the sandwich over and over. If you want to be covered, just close the shop at that time, or do it on a holiday, or at least don't bother other customers. I will never come again. Taste and price are secondary issues, if you can't serve properly, just refuse customers from the start. I would have been better off going to another shop.
