    Famous for their original tempura udon, where the large tempura topping barely fits in the bowl, this udon restaurant serves boat-shaped delicate tempura that is balanced on the edge of the udon bowl, and not directly on top of the soup noodles. This unique original dish has been a best seller since the store's opening. The soup noodles themselves have a brimful of wakame seaweed on top, which blends excellently with the flavors. About half of all the customer order this original dish. The recommended way to eat this dish is to first eat the tempura by itself, then enjoy the chewy noodles and broth together, and later enjoy the combination of the tempura dipped in the broth. Another popular dish is the kitsune udon, where the soup noodles are completely covered with a patty of marinated deep-fried tofu.

    天ぷらが特徴的な形で有名ですが、うどん自体もとてもおいしかった。私たちが訪れたのは日曜日の6時頃でしたが、すぐに売り切れになってました。

    Kagawa Mitoyo-shi Yamamotocho Ono 2854-8
    This udon restaurant is about a 10-minute drive from the Sanuki Toyonaka Interchange off the Takamatsu Expressway. Visitors can appreciate an authentic bowl of Sanuki udon with chewy resilient noodles in this quaint little store nestled by the Saita River. The stylish interior of this shop has only counter seating which encircles the kitchen in the center of the room. Unlike the distinctive Sanuki self-service style shops, here, one orders and then takes a seat to wait for the dish. The tako-chikuwa fish sausage here has the great flavor combination with the octopus pieces and is a very popular item. The tako-chikuwa bukkake udon topped with the freshly fried tako-chikuwa is very filling. Don’t miss the signboard and the flags on the highway nearby to find your way to this secluded shop.

    Kagawa Shozu-gun Shodoshima Cho Katajo Ko 44-224
    This udon restaurant is approximately three minutes by car from the Kusakabe Port. Visitors can enjoy authentic traditional Sanuki udon in this quaint old shop. Their most popular item, which is enjoyed not only by tourists but by the locals also, is Olive udon. The resilient chewy firm noodles are topped with their own homemade salty pickled olives, a refreshing matched flavor for udon. To the dried bonito and dried sardine based broth is added just a drizzle of Shodo Island olive oil, giving it an elegant but richer flavor. Many of the dishes are unique, available only at this shop, such as the olive gyuniku udon, which is topped with a mildly sweet marinated Olive Beef, and the gyu-suji udon, which is topped with string beef.

    Kagawa Nakatado-gun Kotohiracho 1223-9
    This outlandish udon shop is open for only 10 minutes. This shop serves their udon, with the noodles they freshly kneaded and cut in the factory next door, from 12 noon for only 10 minutes. Only udon is on the menu with the two options of either hot or cold. These traditional udon noodles made from a specially blend of two kinds of flour, the Sanuki-no-yume produced in Kagawa, and a discriminatingly selected choice of another flour, have repeatedly been awarded the highest gold award from Monde Selection. Because this is primarily a wholesale business, the store hours are irregular, depending on the manufacturing schedule. It is best to check whether they are open on their SNS before heading there.

    Kagawa Nakatado-gun Kotohiracho 700-8
    This is an udon restaurant along the pilgrimage route to Kotohira Shrine, endearingly called Konpira-san by many. This shop, whose name has become known around the nation, has continued to carry on the tradition of making authentic udon since its inception around the sixties. It is said that Sanuki Konpira udon was brought over from the Tang dynasty in China by Saint Kobo Daishi Kukai long ago. The noodles are known for their distinctive resilience and chewiness, which comes from the painstaking processes of kneading, foot stomping, and hand stretching. The Konpira Udon comes with seven toppings, and its broth is a popular blend of two kinds of soy sauce with a base of dried bonito and kelp. The shop, with its trademark signage and the tanuki raccoon statue, is brimming with character and a sense of history.

    Kagawa Nakatado-gun Kotohiracho 717
    This udon restaurant is directly owned and operated by the Nakano Udon School, of national fame and covered by many of the various media. Here, in the surroundings to the gate to Konpira Shrine, visitors can enjoy and appreciate the strength of authentic Sanuki udon noodles. The dignified looking structure which houses the school was built during the Edo period around 1850. This over 150-year-old structure is the oldest wood constructed building in the area around Kotohira Shrine. The shop inside is arranged in the typical Sanuki self-service style. The Shoyu udon, which is plain noodles with straight pure soy sauce, is said by some tourist to be a dish they can never forget. The kake udon with its aromatic light dried sardine broth and the niku-bukkake udon topped with richly flavored meat are both popular variations as well.

    母と2人でこんぴらさん参拝後に寄らせていただきました。 参拝道中、いろいろ食べてしまい、そんなにお腹が減ってた訳ではないですが、 せっかく来たのでどうしてもうどんが食べたい中、お店の前で迷っていたら、 おじさんに声をかけて頂いたので店内へ。 2人して申し訳なさそうにかけうどん1杯とかき揚げ・エビ天を注文すると、 「2人で分け分けして食べー」と、だしの入ったどんぶりをもう1つくれました。 店内で...

    Just a 15-minute walk from the Kotohira Station, this soba and udon restaurant is near the stairway leading up to the Konpira Shrine. Here at the shop, facing the pilgrimage main street, visitors can enjoy the wonderful mellow flavor of their soba and udon. This charming shop is said to have been started in the front desk area of the 400-year-old Toraya Ryokan inn. Throughout the inside of the restaurant are old carvings of tigers, and other artwork. Any of the dishes offered on the menu can be made with your choice of soba noodles or udon noodles. The broth, which is not too rich or too light, combines with the softly chewy noodles to make a delicious blend of flavors. There are many customers who pop in to boost their carb intake before the challenging 785 steps up to the shrine.

    こんぴらさん表参道にあるうどん屋さん。店のおばあちゃんが声をかけてくれたので入りました。値段はかけ300円からと格安です。ただし今時の気合いの入った麺という感じではなく、昔ながらの懐かしい味わいのうどんと言ったところです。建物の趣やら、店の雰囲気を楽しむならいいかもしれません。

    Kagawa Higashikagawa-shi Minato 6-1
    This is an udon restaurant just a five-minute drive from the Shirotori Ouchi Interchange on the Takamatsu Expressway. With the Konpira Kabuki Theater depicted on their trademark signage, visitors can't miss this shop where they can enjoy per-hydrated noodles. The shop prides themselves on these noodles, which are like kneaded mochi and have a chewy texture that is quite resilient. They have been serving authentic Sanuki udon noodles, with no additives or other modified starches, since their founding in 1926. Their most popular item is the Kamanuki udon dish, where the boiled noodles are directly placed your bowl without water-cooling, and then simply topped with an egg, dried bonito flakes and soy sauce.

    金比羅山にお参りし、パフェは食べましたが、さすがにお腹が空き、以前から気になっていたこちらのお店に。 駐車場でうどん食べている人がいなければ、中々わからないお店。 味は確かに美味しいですが、前日のお店と比べるとインパクトに負けるかなぁ。 でめ麺はモチっとしていますが、コシもあります。 ダシもしっかり旨味を堪能。

    讃岐うどん屋さんの営業時間は短いです。終了は午後2時です。 時間との勝負です。1時頃お店を来訪しましたら外にはお客さんは並んでいませんでした。駐車場も隣にありわかりやすいです。 中に入るとお店の中に並びます。 店主がオーダーを聞いて うどんの茹で時間、量などを計算して茹でます。 隣では天ぷらを揚げる方が専門であげています。 釜茹でと、イカの天ぷらざるうどんを頼みました。 もちもちの釜茹で...

    11時のオープン前から数人並んでる、そんなうどん屋です。 太麺でコシがあります。 毎回、生醤油うどんを食べますが、茹でる所からスタートするから少し時間がかかりますが、もちもちで美味しいうどんが食べられます。 天ぷらはゴボウがオススメと店員さんから教えて貰って、食べるようになりました。また店員さん、みんなが明るくて感じがいいです。 早い時間に行くと、生うどんの端を袋に入れて頂けます。

    お味はかなりいけると思います、でも高いと思います。場所は多少わかりにくく、また駐車場もここでいいのかと思うような公共の駐車場を使っているという感じです。しかしやはりいつも思うのはこういった地元のお店は観光客にはかなり入りにくいといった感じは否めません。残念ながら排他的な感じがしました。お店の看板にはいろいろなキャッチフレーズが書いてあったにも関わらず残念です。

    夜の高松は結構賑やか。落ち着いて飲める店を探したが良さげなとこは満席多し。そんな中、古民家を改装した雰囲気良さげな此処へ。家の玄関を上がり和室に絨毯ひいたテーブル席に案内されました。うーん落ち着けるなあ。料理はそれなりにボリュームありリーズナブル。地酒も正一合入ってそんなに高くなかった。友人に予定があって〆のそば食べれなかったことが残念!

Kagawa Areas

around-area-map

Japan’s smallest prefecture, Kagawa, may take up just a small corner of Shikoku, but it has grown increasingly popular with the recognition of Naoshima, its "art island" in the Seto Inland Sea between Shikoku and Honshu. Just a stone’s throw from the islands, mainland Kagawa’s prefectural capital, Takamatsu, holds history in its castle ruins and its pride and joy, Ritsurin Garden, is known as one of the country’s best gardens.
