How many chopsticks are there? This store specializes in chopsticks and chopstick rests. Perhaps because of the image of Kyoto cuisine, chopsticks give a very Kyoto-like impression. Generally, most chopsticks are made of asunaro hinoki cypress, but here in Kyoto, where Nagaoka is a major bamboo production site, this shop has a full lineup of chopsticks and chopstick rests made of bamboo, as well as bamboo toothpicks and toothpick box sets.
The most Kyoto-like chopsticks are the "Kyo Bamboo Chopsticks" series made of bamboo from Nagaokakyo City, famous for its bamboo shoots. Bamboo is a less-slippery material good for eating noodles, tofu, and many other foods.
