Kiryu, Gunma, Japan｜藤屋第一支店

The curry udon here at Fujiya Daiichi Branch is the real curry udon! (affirmation) I really want other stores across the country to follow suit. Not only does it use green onions, which are the proof of proper curry udon, but it also has the perfect balance of thickness and spiciness. It's not sweet, it's not like the soy sauce sauce like mitarashi dango, and the taste of curry and dashi is the golden ratio! ! There are many restaurants that serve curry udon noodles using onions, but it's such a sin that it would be better to close them down. I look forward to eating Fujiya's curry udon every month. Simple is best without doing anything extra! It's a nice curry udon. Other tanuki udon are delicious, but I recommend the curry udon.

This is a branch of Fujiya, a famous Himokawa udon restaurant in Kiryu City. I visited here because the main store was crowded. I ordered a set of Himokawa udon and mini sauce katsudon. You can enjoy Kiryu City specialties all at once. The udon noodles are about 5 centimeters wide and thin, resembling long wontons. If you dip it in the juice and put it in your mouth, it will go down your throat smoothly. It's delicious if the soup is mixed well. Another specialty, sauce katsudon, had a slightly sweet and fruity sauce, and it was also delicious. These two dishes were very satisfying.

Fujiya Shokudo is always crowded, so I stopped by this restaurant, thinking it might be a sister restaurant. There is a large parking lot across the road, so it was easy to park. When you step inside the restaurant's exterior, you'll have high expectations for the Japanese-style interior. I ordered a mini rice bowl set. 800 yen is good for this. There are several types of udon and rice bowls to choose from, so you won't get bored even if you come every day. The taste was very delicious, especially the sauce on the sauce cutlet bowl had a deep flavor, and it was an exquisite taste that I don't think I've ever had before. My next target would be to compare it with Fujiya Shokudo.
