It is only open for one hour from 11:30 to 12:30 when visitors will be able to try their delicious udon (it is possible to get served if queuing at 12:30).

Souvenirs are sold from 9:00 to 17 :00.

1日1時間しか営業していない製麺所が運営しているうどん屋さん。11時過ぎに行くとすでに行列がありました。先に並んでいると注文を取られ、2巡目で入店することができました。先着100食分は「さぬきの夢」という小麦を使った麺が提供され、それ以降はブレンドされた麺になるとのことです。かけと釜玉を注文。私もさぬきの夢の麺を食べることができました。麺は本当にもちもち！お餅ぐらいもちもち。ふわふわさ...

"Located about a 20-minute walk from JR Kamogawa Station, this udon shop opens at 8:30 a.m., attracting both local residents and tourists, and it is not unusual to see a long line of customers waiting for their turn to eat udon outside the store during lunchtime. The ""Kake Udon"" menu item, with its simple taste of firm noodles topped with dashi broth, has won the hearts of many fans."

Kagawa Pref. Ayautagunutaduchou Hamahachibanchou 129-10

This famous hand-made udon noodle restaurant located in Utazu-cho, Ayauta County in Kagawa Prefecture has been featured in many TV programs and travel magazines. It has many fans who come from in and outside the prefecture and it is known for having long queues. Based on the belief that udon must be made by treading with the feet over and over, the noodles, of which the restaurant is proud and created with just the right amount of treading, are superb with their gloss, flexibility and strong firmness. The flagship dish is Hiyaten Oroshi, a generously-portioned chilled udon bowl topped with two giant tempura prawns. It also sells udon to take home with you.

おうどんも手打ちではなく、機械で使っており麺は均等です。あまりコシがなくお出汁も薄く、香川のおうどん屋さんとしてはあまりおいしさが感じられなませんでした。蒲鉾がのっていたりと、彩りは美しく無骨なおうどんではありませんでした。

Kagawa Pref. Marugameshi Dokichouhigashi 9-283 Clover Shoei Building BC

You’ll find this popular udon shop near the Museo Marugame Hirai (Marugame Hirai Museum) in Doki Town, Marugame City, Kagawa Prefecture. The noodle recipe was passed down from parent to child, and everything is done by hand, from the kneading of the dough to the stretching, cutting, and boiling. The udon freshly lifted from the pot is a delicacy with a nice, soft surface and a very springy texture. In addition to the “kama-tama udon,” there’s also cold udon and tsukemen noodles similar to zaru-style noodles. There’s only counter seating available, and the soup stock and seasonings are all self-service. The restaurant closes once the noodle supply runs out.

四国水族館訪問で近くに寄ったので、開店直後に訪問しました。セルフ方式の多い香川のうどん屋さんですが、こちらのお店は先にうどんを注文して席で待つというちょっと変わったスタイルで戸惑いました。ちなみに支払いは、食後に食器の返却と一緒です。うどんが細めなのが特徴ですが、コシはしっかりある美味しいうどんでした。ひやひやの出汁も美味しくて全部飲み干しました。

Kagawa Sakaide-shi Omicho 2635

Approximately 20 minutes by car via Sakaide Kita Interchange, Takamatsu-danshi Interchange. This old temple sits on the hillside of Mt. Shiromine in Goshikidai—holy mount of Kagawa Prefecture. It is the 81st temple of the Shikoku 88-temple Pilgrimage, and its primary image is Senju Kannon, with protector gods from Eto zodiac venerated in their own respective halls. It is adjacent to the only Imperial mausoleum in Shikoku—Mt. Shiromine—so the Shiromine Daigongen (Sagamibo), one of Japan’s 8 Tengus, is also adored here. On the main path, you can enjoy the grand views of Seto and the Chigo-no-taki Waterfall—the tallest in the prefecture. Most of the buildings are Important Cultural Properties, and with cherry blossoms in spring, hydrangeas in summer, and colored leaves in fall, there is always something to see here.

Kagawa Areas

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.
