Kinana (きなな) Gion Kinana’s fresh-made kinako ice cream, more cream than ice, is the best Japanese ice cream that I have had. Their parfaits are completely amazing too. Kinana is located in Gion, just off of Hanamikoji Street, one of Kyoto’s most scenic and historic neighborhoods.

That is too bad, and odd, because Japanese love ice cream and eat plenty of it. This is the country that gave the world ice cream tempura! Chibeta (ちべた) Chibeta is located in Nishijin, the old weaving district of Kyoto. Chibeta offers high quality ice cream for eat in, take out and they even sell online. Chibeta offers novel riffs on traditional Japanese flavors, ingredients and sweets. As always in Kyoto culinary culture, the seasons are important and Chibeta offers numerous seasonal fruit flavors.
