Shikagoya

3.0

A regional cuisine restaurant located a 10-minute walk from the Untoan Temple, a Buddhist temple where the samurai Naoe Kanetsugu and the samurai lord Uesugi Kagekatsu studied in their youths. The restaurant’s building is constructed entirely of Japanese zelkova wood and was built some two centuries ago; inside, customers can enjoy the simple flavors of the area’s local cuisine. Particularly recommended is the Shikagoya Teishoku, which comes with a large number of local specialty dishes. The hearty meal includes cold zaru soba noodles made with local buckwheat flour, tempura, rice, and seasonal side dishes. The restaurant also serves many dishes you’ll find virtually no place else, such as deep fried karaage made with rare local Japanese fluvial sculpin; and kirizaidon, a rice bowl which is a popular cheap eat inMinamiuonuma.
