Akitakata, Hiroshima, Japan｜Mendokoro Kamine

This udon restaurant is only open from noon until around 3pm, so I've always been interested in this udon restaurant, but I've never tried it before. Inside, there is a cheerful old lady who is running the whole thing by herself. This time I had burdock udon, but the meat burdock udon is recommended. Auntie, tell me before you eat (lol) A rescue cat will also greet you and let you touch it. Also, my aunt's favorite is actually rice balls. When you squeeze it, make sure you don't add any water to it. Exquisite softness that doesn't grip too much. It becomes addictive.

My mother, or rather my grandmother, runs the store by herself. It doesn't look like a restaurant, it's just too ordinary udon, like something your mom would make at home. The store title Chamber of Commerce Women's Department Store After all, it's really udon noodles made with ordinary ingredients. At worst, it's cheap. To put it nicely, it tastes like your mother's. My favorite is nigiri-meshi. If I were to come to a udon restaurant and say something like this, I might get angry, but the udon is a bonus, so I'm here just for the nigiri meal. I don't want to order udon, I just want to get full with this nigiri meal. When I said that, he laughed and boasted about his handmade rice. As expected of your mother. Hey, grandma.

I had some simple and delicious soba noodles. I will drop by again.
