    Kagoshima Kumage-gun Yakushimacho Anbo 540-234
    This soba restaurant marked by a small wooden sign is located in a thicket just beyond the end of a narrow seaside path. It serves soba noodles crafted carefully handcrafted using stone-ground buckwheat flour. Their broth is made with the pure water of Yakushima Island and blend of high-grade sababushi (dried mackerel) from Yakushima and high-grade katsuobushi (dried bonito) from Ibusuki City's Yamagawa-cho, which is famous for producing katsuobushi. It is popular for bringing out the refreshing fragrance of the lightly-flavored soba, which pairs incredibly well with their vegetable fritters. The restaurant also offers a full selection of a la carte dishes including grilled duck, tempura assortments, grilled pork with yuzukosho (yuzu zest and green chili paste), and more.

    Kagoshima Kumage-gun Yakushimacho Miyanoura 421-5
    This restaurant located about a five-minute drive from Miyanoura Port serves a menu focused on noodle dishes such as udon, and soba. Look for the yellow-green shop curtains. Their popular Yakushima ramen is an extravagant dish topped with slices of sababushi and grated Yakutoro yam. Sababushi is a popular delicacy of Yakushima Island made by smoke-drying filets of Yakusaba mackerel from the coastal waters around Yakushima Island. This concentrates the mackerel's natural savory flavor and gives it a strong smoky aroma. In addition to this and other noodle dishes such as moyashi (bean sprout) ramen and champon noodles chock full of vegetables and garlic, the restaurant also offers a wide variety of donburi (rice bowls) such as katsudon (fried pork cutlet on rice) and oyakodon (chicken and egg on rice).

    おばちゃんにおススメを聞くと屋久島ラーメンとチャンポンが良く出ますよとの事。 屋久島ラーメンとチャンポンを頼みました。 大きめの器で、野菜たっぷりチャンポンニンニク入りはしっかり味。 屋久島ラーメンはあっさりしながらコクのある味で美味しかったです。

    Kagoshima Nishinoomote Nishimachi 49-1

    西之表港のフェリーターミナル内にあるお蕎麦屋さんで、 とても地味ですが無難においしいです。 メニューはかなりシンプルすぎるので、食事をするというよりは、小腹が空いた時の軽食に最適かもしれません。 サメ皮のわさびおろし器がついているあたりは、ちょっと本格派で良い感じです。

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.
