The hometown of udon noodles - Sanuki, Kagawa Prefecture: Udon Honjin Yamada family

#1月好去地方2025

During our trip to Shikoku, we came to "Sanuki", the hometown of udon in Kagawa Prefecture. Of course, we had to pick a beautiful and popular store to try. Fortunately, we drove by ourselves, so we could easily reach this remote "Udon Honjin Yamada-ya".

The restaurant has a large traditional Japanese garden. Walking through the door curtain, you will see an old wooden building, outdoor seats with red umbrellas, and carved old pines. The layout of the garden is elegant and grand, and it feels like you are a guest at a wealthy family's home.

The noodles are homemade, chewy and have a light noodle aroma. The udon is very chewy and delicious whether it is in soup or dry. There is also crispy fried tempura, which is really enjoyable when paired with a cup of warm matcha. The treasure udon is highly recommended.
