About
Seigen-in serves a simple yudofu hotpot with vegetables, rice, and small side dishes in tatami rooms overlooking the pond garden at Ryoanji Temple. It’s a quiet, traditional stop built around fresh tofu; allow for the temple entry ticket, cash-only payment, and a dipping sauce that one reviewer said contains dashi.
