Sanuki is an area with long history in Shikoku Island, far from Tokyo but relatively near Osaka. Because Shikoku and Honshu are connected by railway bridge and road bridge and even by ferry, you can easily go. In my case, I got off a train at Sakaide Station and used Brompton for a ride to reach these restaurants.

First, Gamou Restaurant at 8 o'clock in the morning. It is very famous and has nation-wide reputation. Do not miss.
When I finished, see this. They know this good restaurant very well.
Next, Tamura. I came here for the first time.
Uncle Tamura was a jolly person.
Wow, delicious.
Then, moved on to Matsuoka, the best one in the area and where I really wanted to go today. There was no signboard or any other indication of the name "MATSUOKA" but the curtain only saying "UDON, best taste."
Well, it is impossible to discribe this heavenly taste and smooth feeling of UDON noodle going down my throat. You should come here to eat before you die.
It is a nice country view with a local train running in the meadow.
There was another legendary Udon restaurant, Nakamura. Unfortunately it was closed on that day. I need to come back another day!
I visit Sanuki every summer to eat wonderful UDON. If you have Brompton, please come to ride and eat Udon for all the day. Your satisfaction guaranteed!
What is "Sanuki Udon"
This chewy but smooth texture,white wheat noodle is always associated with this area of Shikoku, Japan’s fourth main island. They are traditionally served plain to be dipped in a soup stock made from fish and kelp and with toppings, such as fried fish meat, fried squid, and raw egg.
