- An old bread shop established in 1948 in Nagata Town, Morioka City.

With such abundant variation, this shop has become synonymous with Morioka soul food.

駅前のホテルに投宿。遠野と言えばジンギスカンという事で、探してみると、あんべ等有名な所は結構遠い。と言う事で近くにあった「じんぎす館」へ。 ラムの肩ロースと野菜多めのセット。途中で肉を追加。鍋は北海道と同じ。 タレはアッサリ。 2人では少し足りなかったので、冷麺を追加。 これも美味。 ここはおススメ
Iwate Areas

A northern Tohoku prefecture promising peace and quiet, Iwate is sparsely populated, replacing people with snow-capped mountains, history-rich sites, and fields of crops that are to thank for the region’s delicious local cuisine. Meander along the three-city Golden Route, where you’ll visit the grand Buddhist temples of Hiraizumi and the Tono folk villages before tasting the three famed noodle dishes of Morioka.
