    Wakayama Pref. Itogunkudoyamachou Kudoyama 1353
    This shop specializing in persimmon leaf sushi is just a little south of Sanada-an and the Sanada Burial Mound. It's been featured in the media on many occasions. Kudoyama-cho is a famous persimmon growing area, and persimmon leaf sushi was first created in the region of the upper Kinokawa River. They sell three kinds: mackerel, salmon, and shiitake mushroom. You need to place orders for the salmon and shiitake mushroom varieties at least a day in advance. They serve saketoba salmon jerky and stewed salmon as well, dishes that go great with rice and beer. They hold workshops four days a week. The shop opens at 8:00 in the morning closes as soon as they are sold out.

    Traditional “KAKI leaf-sushi” of this shop is my favorite one. Shop is really tiny. But I am sure that this shop is popular. Sushi itself is Simple but tasty. Shimesaba (marinade cut mackerel...

    Wakayama Kinokawa Kokawa 73
    This restaurant specializes in Kakinoha-sushi (persimmon leaf sushi), a regional dish of northern Wakayama Prefecture. It is located a five-minute walk from JR Kokawa Station or a 30-minute drive from the Sennan Interchange on the Hanwa Expressway along Prefectural Route 63. Each piece is carefully handmade one at a time without the use of preservatives or additives. Their classic kakinoha-sushi features mackerel on sushi rice made with a secret blend of vinegar wrapped up in a persimmon leaf. We also recommend their jako-sushi (dried young sardines sushi), a dish unique to this area. Another popular offering is their ayu-sushi (sweetfish sushi), which features a whole sweetfish served on sushi rice.

    お盆に、久しぶりに柿の葉寿司が食べたいなと思い、鮭と鯖の二種類が入ったのを買いましたが、期待を裏切らなく美味しかったです! 母も柿の葉寿司を食べられて満足してました! 夏バテで体が疲れ気味の時でも、あっさりとしてますし、お酢が使われてるので食べやすいと思います。 オススメです!

    平均的な居酒屋ですが、大将からスタッフまでみなさん気持ちのいい笑顔です。 「アテ」はきっちり調理されています。カウンターから座敷までどんな人数でもOKです。最寄の御幸辻まで歩いて1キロ強と少し遠いですが、田舎ではいい方です。

    昼食で伺いました。 藤左ヱ門セットを注文、握り寿司10巻と赤だし、小鉢一品がまず提供されます。 食事が終了すると、飲み物(コーヒー等、選べます)+小さな自家製プリンが出てきます。これで、税抜き880円とは、驚きのコストパフォーマンス。 当日の寿司の種類は、入り口に表示しています。まずまずのおいしさ。 デザートのプリンが、非常においしく、寿司屋のレベルのものではない。 再訪有。

Wakayama Areas

Wakayama prefecture unites pilgrims, food lovers, and culture buffs in a tranquil corner of Japan at the base of the Kii Peninsula. The setting for many a Kumano Kodo pilgrimage trail, Wakayama invites those in search of spirituality from one side of the prefecture to the other, from the 100-plus Buddhist temples of the sacred Mount Koya in the west to the inspiring temples of the Kumano Sanzan set among breathtaking nature in the east. Once the grueling hike is complete, make a beeline for Wakayama city to savor some of the country’s most delicious ramen noodles.
