It is an unusual type of udon that is characterized by its hard and chewy noodles and toppings such as horse meat and cabbage. It has also been selected as one of the ``Top 100 Local Dishes from Rural Areas, Mountains, and Fishing Villages,'' selected from among the local flavors of each region. Yoshida's udon noodles are characterized by thick and chewy noodles, toppings made with horse meat and cabbage, and a soup made with miso and soy sauce. This is the only place in Japan where you can eat it with a spiciness called suridane. Yoshida's udon was originally a home-cooked dish, so each restaurant has its own characteristics. For example, some restaurants use beef or horse meat, and the sides vary in hardness and length. Although there are general rules, there are no clear rules, so the freedom of making them may also be a characteristic of Yoshida's udon. In this plan, customers will make udon noodles from powder. Enjoy with hot soup and toppings such as cabbage, fried tofu, and wakame. The content is quite extensive, so please come hungry. Our store also offers a dyeing experience where you can experience traditional Japanese dyeing techniques using natural materials, which can be used as a set with the hotou experience. During the dyeing experience, we will explain each step in detail, so even those who are new to dyeing and those who come with children can participate with confidence.

Fujiyoshida City is a highland city located at an altitude of approximately 650m to 850m at the foot of Mt. Fuji. The average annual temperature is 11 degrees Celsius, and the soil is made up of lava flows and volcanic ash from the eruption of Mt. Fuji, making the area unsuitable for rice cultivation. For this reason, they cultivated barley, wheat, millet, millet, and corn, which became the foundation of today's udon culture. During the Edo period, Fuji-ko became popular, and in the northern foothills of Fuji, Oshi-machi and Oshi-no-Ie were built for people visiting Mt. Fuji, such as Yoshida-juku. It is said that udon began to be sold to pilgrims in ordinary residential buildings. As a result of that tradition, there are still many private-style udon restaurants that don't even have signboards or curtains. The weaving industry flourished in Fujiyoshida from the late Edo period to the Showa period. Since this was mainly women's work, it is said that men cooked rice and made udon noodles in place of women who were busy with weaving and sericulture. It is said that this was done to prevent the hands of women working with textiles from getting rough. It is said that Yoshida's udon, which is popular today and is known for its chewiness, hardness, and thickness, was created by kneading the flour with the full force of men's hands.

At our restaurant, we not only offer Yoshida's udon making experience, but we also highly recommend the set menu, which includes simmered chicken offal, assorted tempura, the famous giant chicken tempura, and a natural dyeing experience.・Children's set (5-12 years old) → Yoshida's udon making + potato fries + homemade granola ice cream ・Fujiya set → Yoshida's udon making + Koshu specialty chicken offal stew + homemade granola ice cream ・Famous giant chicken tempura set → Yoshida's udon making + Famous giant chicken tempura + homemade granola ice cream/tempura set → Yoshida's udon making + 3 types of tempura platter + homemade granola ice cream/dying experience set → Yoshida's udon making + natural dyeing experience The most popular set menu is "Famous giant chicken tempura" "Set" ☆ 50% of customers who visit our store order this menu.
