5. Honke Owariya, Kyoto, Japan (1465)

This is the oldest restaurant in Japan that debuted as a candy shop. The place, which was founded in 1465, excels in soba noodles and has catered to everyone from wandering shoguns to Buddhist monks, including the Japanese Imperial family.

Honke Owariya is housed in an interesting old wooden structure with charming furnishings and tranquil settings. If you have the chance to go there, you should try its specialty, the traditional buckwheat noodles. Also, the chefs only use the “freshest” Kyoto spring well water to cook the restaurant’s delicious soup broth.

The sitting area mostly provides tatami mat floors around low tables, so those who’ve got knee problems may want to book a table in advance.

  1. I lived in Boston for 30 years and The Old Union Oyster House was an every Saturday event for a dozen oysters on the half shell with that great taste of the ocean and a glass of cold beer. God, do I miss it!!!!!
