Tokorozawa, Saitama, Japan｜Kantaro

After my children became independent, I decided to visit udon restaurants in the prefecture with my husband, so we decided to visit the 46th one. Actually, I've been here several times, but it's my husband's first time. I pass by it several times a week, so I'd like to stop by when I can, but due to the condition of the parking lot, I couldn't stop. I've had the gravy several times before, so this time I had the delicious and spicy meatball soup udon with chili pepper topping. My husband had white miso spicy udon stew. It's about a 10 minute wait, but I can see the making process from my seat. This kind of thing gets me excited. I usually eat pork soup, but I was feeling a bit on a diet and decided to try meatballs with less fat. It was quite delicious. Slightly larger diagonally sliced ​​green onions retain a slightly raw taste, so they're good for green onion lovers. The large-cut fried tofu also plays an important role in bringing the soup to your mouth along with the thick noodles. Add some extra chili peppers (80 yen) to the soup halfway through! This is seriously delicious, spicy, spicy, and the soup turned red in no time. But it's not only spicy, but also has a strong flavor, so you can drink it! Gulp alternately with water. Place the thick and chewy noodles on the spoon with the soup and bring them to your mouth~ Then drink water lol The spiciness is addictive. This chili pepper is so delicious that if I could take it out, I would. Then, I tasted my husband's white miso spicy udon noodles, which were brought to him gruffly. Wow~ What is this? You can only taste it at Kantaro, right? The chili pepper from earlier goes really well with the white miso. Unlike dipping soup, there is a lot of soup, and the sweetness of the white miso may reduce the spiciness by half, but the guy next to me is happy that it is the best of the ones he has had so far. The amount of udon noodles in the pot is 300g, but since there is a lot of soup, it won't reduce as much as my 400g tsukemen. The noodles are thick, so they might be perfect for a hot pot. Even after stewing, the taste of miso remained around the udon, and even my husband, who doesn't like stiff noodles, raved about it. It stays piping hot till the end, so you both want to have more noodles, add various toppings, and add rice at the end, right? ...we talked about it in the car on the way home. If you bring your own pot, don't you think that if you call in advance, you can take the pot with you? It was nabeyaki udon that makes you want to eat it in the cold winter. “Kantaro the North Wind Boy”•*¨*•.¸¸♬︎ Kantaro’s nabeyaki udon in winter. As I felt when I came here before, Kantaro is a store run by young people working hard. Perhaps that's why it doesn't feel like an old-fashioned udon restaurant. Still, the hospitality is high, and it's a restaurant that today's young people wouldn't have given up on. I'm so happy that my husband likes this recommended udon restaurant 20 minutes from my home.

I went there for the first time after watching Saitama Udonko TV on YouTube! delicious! It's just delicious! The noodles are soft but chewy and very filling! I ate 5 types of udon: gravy, spicy, chicken gravy, curry gravy, and nabeyaki udon! All of them are so delicious I can't choose! The meat has a good flavor in the gravy, and the soup is made from bonito? It's effective and goes perfectly with the noodles! The curry udon is also great, with curry and udon intertwined! The hotpot grilled meatballs are also mixed with spicy miso, giving them just the right amount of spiciness! All the staff members are very friendly and, perhaps by chance, they are all cute girls! It was the best! Let's go again!

Addictive Udon! Visited for the first time. First, the standard nabeyaki udon. This time I ordered the white miso. Order 400g of noodles instead of 300g. A simmering clay pot arrived in the middle of summer. The noodles are firm and chewy, which suits my taste. Miso is also rich and delicious when eaten with stewed vegetables. 400g was eaten in no time. It seems that 500g of this can be eaten normally. Next time I visit, I would like to go with red miso. Thank you for the meal. The parking lot was full when I went at noon, so be careful.
