Sanuki Udon (Sanuki City)
Popular Sanuki Udon shops are scattered throughout Sanuki City, which carries the very name "Sanuki." There is a reason why Kagawa Prefecture became the home of udon. Low precipitation led to a thriving salt-making industry since ancient times, high-quality dried sardines (iriko) used for dashi were plentiful in the Seto Inland Sea, and the warm climate was suitable for wheat cultivation. With these conditions met, udon culture flourished in Sanuki. Within Sanuki City, you can find authentic-style shops, such as self-service establishments attached to noodle factories. There is nothing quite as luxurious as eating freshly made and boiled noodles on the spot. Please be sure to stop by while touring the udon shops in the eastern part of the prefecture.
