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.

Come to Kanazawa! Have fun on sunny days and rainy days! Even though Kanazawa is a city that looks good in kimonos, it would be a waste to just wear a kimono and go sightseeing! Since it's a rare opportunity, why not try to experience a little bit of Kanazawa's traditional culture and have an experience that can only be had at that time. Kanazawa rains a lot, so you may be worried about whether you can take a leisurely stroll in a kimono... If you experience making kimono scrap art, you don't have to worry about that at all! ! --------------------------------------------------------------------------------＜What is making kimono scrap art?＞This is an experience where you carefully unravel each piece of kimono that you can no longer wear due to holes caused by burning or stains that won't come off, and use small pieces of kimono scraps to paste them onto stencils to create a one-of-a-kind art piece. We have a variety of stencils, such as the Tsuzumimon Gate at Kanazawa Station, the Kotoji lantern at Kenrokuen, and Kanazawa Castle, so please choose the one you like! Don't worry, there are also simple designs such as dinosaurs and flowers for children. No special skills are required, so anyone can easily get started. It's interesting that even if you use the same stencil, you can create a different work depending on the kimono scraps you use! You can take the finished work home in a frame on the spot. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------<Plan Contents> ① Reception Our store has a very homely atmosphere and our friendly staff (we're so friendly that we always get along with our customers...lol) will guide you. ② Create a one-of-a-kind kimono scrap art Make your own special work! There is no answer to art! Some people create boldly, others delicately! The best part is thinking about the color arrangement and cutting the kimono into your favorite shape, so you can experience it while chatting with the staff in a friendly atmosphere! ③ Decide the color of the frame ④ Choose the color of the frame and put the work in You can take the finished work home in a frame on the spot. We would be happy if you could hang it in the entrance or on the wall as one of the wonderful memories of your trip to Kanazawa. If your plans change due to sudden rain... why not experience culture while playing at such times? All of our staff look forward to meeting you. *If you would like to make a reservation on the day, please contact us by phone.
