Deep Kyoto & Tadg’s

August 21, 2010 By Michael Lambe 2 Comments

Right then! I'm off to Bali for a week and will be resolutely offline during the interval so there'll be no more posts for a wee while, but before I go a short word of explanation. The astute among you may have noticed the appearance of a black box on the upper right of this page which proudly bears the name "Tadg's". It looks like this (only smaller): I'm pleased to … [Read more...]

Tadg’s Irish Bar and Restaurant

May 30, 2010 By 5 Comments

The Home of Craft Beer in Kyoto Four years since it first opened, the Irish pub formerly known as Mc Loughlin's has been renamed as Tadg's. Not a big change really, as I think everyone was calling it that anyway. I've written previously about this pub; its friendly hospitality and the fantastic views over the river and city. And Tadg's cooking is also justifiably renowned; … [Read more...]

Singing & Dancing Round the Table @ Irish Pub Gnome

May 3, 2010 By Michael Lambe 1 Comment

I quite like Gnome; it's small and cosy and Yuko is a great cook (I'm particularly partial to her colcannon and soda bread). And the sing-along events are great fun. Felicity and Tomoko Saito play a mix of British and Irish traditional tunes and sometimes even some Japanese too. Here's their version of 知床旅情: You'll notice a couple of chaps at the back. … [Read more...]

Folk Music Workshop @ Irish Pub Gnome

June 4, 2009 By Leave a Comment

Last weekend's traditional music workshop at Gnome was a great success and so it looks like there will be many more in the future. Felicity Greenland writes: Japanese and foreigners all singing together in a cool atmosphere... It's hard to explain without sounding crass, but really, it's a very special bonding thing to sing together - everyone has had hard times with … [Read more...]

In the mailbag…

April 3, 2009 By Leave a Comment

Every now and again I get an email like this that makes everything seem worthwhile: As a vegetarian, I found your website SO HELPFUL! And I was happy to see you featured in the current issue of the Kyoto Visitors Guide. In that guide, I found the name of Mariko's Kitchen Japanese Cooking classes, which I attended last night. It was such an amazing, special night, and I … [Read more...]

antighseinnse

March 11, 2009 By 1 Comment

There's a Scottish pub in north Kyoto named antighseinnse (a.k.a. Horie's Bar). The name (pronounced "an ti shayn jay" I think) is Gaelic and means simply "Inn". The owner Toshiyuki Horie named it after a favored pub on the isle of Islay in Scotland and still proudly wears a T-shirt celebrating "The best pub in Portnahaven". Horie-san, a self-described whisky otaku or geek, … [Read more...]

Sheep’s

January 17, 2009 By Leave a Comment

Sheep's Public Cafe is a place I have been meaning to check out for a while. I kept seeing it as I cycled home from work and thinking to myself "Sheeps. Why Sheep's?" The signboard outside says "Fish & Chips", "Guinness" and looking at the exterior I imagined just another foreign style pub. Once inside though I was impressed by how bright and cheerful it is. The owners have … [Read more...]

In Search of… the Craic

January 3, 2009 By Michael Lambe Leave a Comment

In December 2008 my friend David Ewen and I (that's us on the left) decided to go on an Irish pub crawl and see exactly what each place had to offer in terms of food, drink, music and the elusive craic. What follows is a list of the five pubs we visited,  a summary of what we found there and a map to each location.  For a fuller article, more pictures and directions click on … [Read more...]
