September itinerary in Japan Day 4 (Iwate Day 2 Meal edition)

September itinerary in Japan Day 4 (Iwate Day 2 Meal edition) (Wednesday, September 29)   Table of contents Breakfast Lunch Craft beer Dinner   Breakfast At “Michi-no-Eki Takatamatsubara” in the Takatamatsubara Memorial Park, there are two restaurants, “Matsubara Shokudo” and “Takata no Gohan”. “Takata no Gohan” was closed, so I had a late breakfast at “Matsubara Shokudo”. I ordered “Kaisendon set”. The “Kaisendon set” includes a seafood bowl made from fish and shellfish caught in the sea near Rikuzentakata, centered on Hirota Bay, and “stem wakame” pickled in wasabi and “mekabu soba” caught in Hirota Bay. https://takata-matsubara.com/ Even if it wasn’t delicious enough to impress, it was delicious enough for the “Kaisendon set” offered at the roadside station. This shop is recommended when you go to Takata Matsubara Memorial Park. However, if you have time, you should eat at restaurants around Rikuzentakata Station. https://edokagura.com/en/local-cuisine/455/   Lunch What I absolutely wanted to eat in Rikuzentakata was the “Rikuzentakata Ezoishikagekai (Clinocardium california)“, which is the summer “pride fish” of Iwate Prefecture selected by Japan Fisheries Cooperatives. When asked at the Rikuzentakata City Tourism and Products Association next to Rikuzentakata Station, it was said that “Sushi Matsuda” was serving “Ezoishikagekai”. https://takanavi.org/gourmet/12168 “Sushi Matsuda”read moreSeptember itinerary in Japan Day 4 (Iwate Day 2 Meal edition)

Iwate’s local cuisine recommended in September

Iwate’s local cuisine recommended in September   Table of contents 1.Introduction 2.”Wan-ko soba” 3.”Hittsumi” 4.”Morioka Reimen” and “Morioka Jaja-men”   1.Introduction There are two types of local cuisine in Iwate prefecture selected by the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries: “Wan-ko soba” and “Hittsumi”. Both are not very seasonal, so those traveling to Iwate Prefecture in September should be able to eat them. https://www.maff.go.jp/j/nousin/kouryu/kyodo_ryouri/attach/pdf/190131-1.pdf   2.”Wan-ko soba” “Wan-ko soba” is known as one of the three major soba noodles in Japan, along with “Togakushi soba” and “Izumo soba”. Eating “Wanko soba” itself becomes an event, and it’s a lot of fun. I like soba, so of course I also love Wan-ko soba. However, even if you go to Iwate in September, the new soba that was just harvested in the fall may not be in time. This is because new soba is usually served from October to November. You can eat Wan-ko soba all year round, but if you are particular about new soba, you may want to go there in October-November. 3.”Hittsumi” “Hittsumi” is a dish in which a lump of wheat flour that has been kneaded with water and spread thinly is torn by hand, and chicken, burdock,read moreIwate’s local cuisine recommended in September
