What kind of place?
Fake reviews removedFounded in 1962, this long-established diner in Kunugizuka, Nanyo has over 60 years of history. The standout feature is the house-made hand-kneaded medium-thick flat noodles — their elastic, ultra-hydrated texture is one-of-a-kind. The lean, lightly seasoned seafood broth pairs perfectly, earning praise for 'transforming character through the noodle.'
