We hope to see you again, and we’ll do our very best to make it up to you next time. 🙇‍♀️

The udon restaurants pictured are some of the places the chef visited during his food tour of Japan.

There are two types of udon restaurants in Japan: full-service and self-service. Full-service restaurants are like regular restaurants, where you sit down and staff take your order. Self-service restaurants are similar to a high school dormitory dining hall; you first take a tray and then fill it with food as you go.

Popular self-service restaurants often have long lines, but it's the same as a high school dining hall. Don't worry, you won't have to wait too long.

Finally, most udon restaurants in Japan accept credit cards, but many of the long-established udon restaurants in Kagawa Prefecture, known as "Udon Land," only accept cash. Exchanging $20 into Japanese yen should be sufficient. Depending on the menu, you might be able to eat three or four bowls of udon for $20.

When you decide to travel to Japan, please visit Waikato Udon. We'll recommend some great udon restaurants🥰
