Hakata Udon (Gobo-ten Udon)

As you slurp the soft noodles, the elegant, light soy sauce dashi releases its aroma. Sitting atop them is a substantial piece of crispy Gobo-ten—the batter, having soaked up the broth and become tender, is irresistible. This is the quintessential Hakata Udon. Hakata udon prioritizes softness over chewiness. It is said that serving pre-boiled noodles heated immediately suited the impatient temperament of Hakata locals. The origin of Gobo-ten is said to be 'Otchan Udon' in Tenjin, and it is believed that burdock was favored because it is easy to digest and nutritious. Enjoy the Gobo-ten as it soaks up the dashi along with the soft noodles. It is a soul food of Fukuoka that warms you from within.
