At the local cooking experience class [Fujiya], we offer a hands-on experience of making "Yoshida Udon", a specialty of Fujiyoshida City, Yamanashi Prefecture! ☆★Introducing Fujiya☆★Nice to meet you. Our restaurant is located in Fuji Kawaguchiko Town, located in the Fuji Five Lakes area of ​​Yamanashi Prefecture, and is holding a hands-on class where everyone can make and enjoy Yamanashi's local cuisine.

Please come visit our store when you are in the Fuji Five Lakes area. ☆★Introducing Yoshida's udon making experience☆★Yoshida's udon is a local dish of udon that is loved around Fujiyoshida City, Yamanashi Prefecture. 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. The natural feel of natural materials and the fact that you make it with your own hands create a one-of-a-kind product that no one else can imitate. ◆ Recommended for the following people ◆ Those who want to try Yamanashi Prefecture's famous dishes Those who want to try making Yamanashi Prefecture's local cuisine Those who are looking for activities at Lake Yamanaka and Lake Kawaguchi Those who want to experience cooking with their parents and children Plan an experience For those who are having trouble sightseeing on a rainy day Those looking for sightseeing with English support *Due to our reservation system, all reservations are by request, but in most cases You can make a reservation at your desired time.

★Local time to experience nature, food, and people in Shirakami The Shirakami-Sanchi Mountains straddle Akita and Aomori prefectures, and the center was Japan's first registered World Natural Heritage Site. Fujisato Town is the base on the Akita side. Why not visit Fujisato to escape the hustle and bustle of the city and spend some local time interacting with nature, food, and people in Shirakami? With this plan, you can easily experience the lives of local people who have lived closely with nature in the Shirakami-Sanchi Mountains since the Jomon period. You can rest assured that the area is close to the village and will be guided by someone who was born and raised in the area. First, you will visit a waterfall that is loved by locals. It is easy to get to, but it is full of a hidden feeling and is worth seeing. Next, you will experience picking wild vegetables. You will pick the most popular wild vegetable in the area, "mizu," while listening to a lecture from a wild vegetable picking expert. When you return to Mori no Eki, you will learn how to peel the wild vegetables you picked and cook them in the local way. Finally, you will have "gakko chakko" around a bonfire. In Akita, this is the term used to describe chatting with close friends over snacks such as gakko (pickles) and tea.
