    A restaurant which serves Keihan, a local Amami dish, located a one-minute walk from the “Yanyu Hisakura-mae” bus stop. Keihan consists of chicken, omelet strips, shiitake mushrooms, papaya pickles, and tankan citrus fruit rind served over piping hot rice and covered with a chicken bone broth. This dish, “fit for a feudal lord,” was originally created to serve to government officials from Satsuma. The restaurant raises its own chickens on its own farm, as well as its own eggs, papaya, and other ingredients. Customers can enjoy the rich flavor of chicken and broth covered rice.

    Kagoshima Amami-shi Naze Nagahamacho 27-1

    ホテル併設のレストランで朝昼晩と同じようなビュッフェが基本です。 料理は正直なところあまり美味しくなく、わざわざ奄美大島まで来て朝晩の2食を無駄にした気分です。 とにかく何でも良いので腹一杯食べたい部活の合宿向きかな。

    Kagoshima Amami-shi Naze Itsubu Cho 12-6
    This restaurant in urban Naze City serves chicken dishes including Amami Keihan, a representative regional dish of Amami Oshima Island. Keihan, which means chicken rice, features a bowl of rice topped with chicken and kinshi tamago (shredded egg crepe) poured over with a soup made from a whole chicken. This popular dish was originally created to be served to officials from the Satsuma Domain during its rule over the island. The chicken used to make the soup is shredded and used as a topping, assuring that you can savor all the flavor of the chicken. Another of the restaurant's popular offerings is their kurobuta papaya-don, which features a bowl of rice topped with lots of Amami Oshima kurobuta pork, mozuku seaweed, and papaya.

    奄美大島の郷土料理が食べれるお店です。 どの料理も普通に美味しく、値段もリーズナブルで飾らないお店です。 個人的には、けいはんと油ソーメンおすすめです。 お通し（席代）は、正直なくてもよいかと思ってしまいました。

    Kagoshima Amami-shi Naze Kanekyu Cho 6-2
    This restaurant serving island cuisine is located along Yanigawa-dori Street, the biggest shopping district on Amami Oshima Island. Guests can enjoy the island's regional cuisine while not just watching but also participating in shima uta (local folk songs) and hachigatsu odori (August dance) performances. The songs are led by the restaurant's owner, a previous winner of the Grand Prize at the Amami Folk Song Competition. She performs the songs while playing a chijin, a style of drum unique to the region. She says that she opened the restaurant and performs there because so many people had requested her shima uta performance.

    奄美初めての人には雰囲気を感じてもらえるのでお勧めのお店です。 名物女将と三線と参加型の島踊り？(笑)これがいやでも盛り上がる。 料理も以前より美味しくなっていると思いました。 料金も他店より安い。女将のおもてなしの心が伝わります。

Kagoshima Areas

around-area-map

Over 100 active volcanoes across Kagoshima make it one of the Japan's most exciting prefectures. The prefectural capital, Kagoshima city, looks out to one of the prefecture’s most spectacular volcanoes, Sakurajima, an island of its own that can be visited and seen close up or admired from afar, with the promise of breathtaking sunsets complete with frequent puffs of smoke and ash. Down the Satsuma Peninsula, the most southerly part of mainland Japan, waterfalls, sand onsen, and fascinating history await, while Kagoshima's abundance of satsuma imo (sweet potato) provide a wholesome snack as well as one of Japan's favourite drinks - shochu.
