On the Restaurant Scene REVIEWS, IMPRESSIONS, COMMENTS, COMPLAINTS Send your comments to: hello@thebrandywine.com Amy at Nine Iron Studios in West Grove told us about Kyoto Japanese Cuisine, a new restaurant in Kennett Square. It's in a new strip mall near Walmart just off Route 1 near Shops of Longwood... a location that is kind of in the dead zone if you don't go to Walmart. Anyway, I like Japanese food having gone to high school in Japan and spent my lunch hours in the town of Tomabochimai at the soba shop rather than the school lunch room. I tried the Tempura Udon, Japanese udon noodles in broth with shrimp and vegetable tempura and poached egg. They serve the tempura on the side and instead of putting it on top of the soup so it didn't get soggy. It was great. Give the place a try if you're feeling Japanese. If enough people don't find the place they will go the way of Amici Miei and that would be a shame.  Location, location, location is important, but people find good food wherever it is prepared.
