Recommended food in Kumamoto city 🇯🇵Michelin one-star pork cutlet, Kumamon food, etc.❤️

During the trip to Fukuoka, I went to Kumamoto for two days and one night. It was easy to see Kumamon in the city. There was also a free Kumamon show at Kumamon Square. Even the food was full of Kumamon elements! Share some of the restaurants/street food I ate in Kumamoto 👇🏻 - 1️⃣Must-eat Michelin one-star pork cutlet in Kumamoto 🐷Fried Kurobuta Pork Loin (pork loin) (3,520 yen) 🐷Assorted Set Meal (2178 yen): includes fried thick-cut tenderloin, shrimp, fried cream cakes 🍚Rice, bean curd soup, and shredded cabbage can be refilled 💬A must-eat restaurant for tourists in Kumamoto, using Kagoshima Kurobuta pork🐷You have to wait about 40 minutes during lunch🕥The pork chop is very crispy. I personally prefer pork loin (fatter), while Pork tenderloin is leaner. It is recommended to order two for comparison😆 📍Shenglie Pavilion 2️⃣A good place to go shopping near Kumamoto Castle 🫘Kumamon Dolls (5 flavors to choose from!) 🥠Kumamoto Steamed Bun (with beef filling!) 🍵Matcha ice cream (choose your own concentration!) 💬I suggest you save some time to go shopping at Sakura no Baba! There are many Kumamoto/Kumamon related snacks, you can definitely eat your fill 📍Sakura Horse Park 👇🏻The following three are all located at JR Kumamoto Station Restaurants in AMU Plaza 6/F: 3️⃣ Kumamoto-exclusive conveyor belt sushi 💬This sushi restaurant has a lot of choices! The point is that the 300 yen sushi plate has a Kumamon pattern 😍 I really want to order a few more plates! 📍Mekkemon Sushi 4️⃣ Evil Cheese Rice 🧀Mature Mentaiko Parmesan Cheese Doria Rice (1,490 yen) 🧀Cuttlefish, cod roe, edamame, cream flavored baked rice (1,254 yen) 💬There are branches in other prefectures in Japan, specializing in cheese baked rice and desserts🍮When I came to Kyushu, I always wanted to eat Mentaiko 🙂↔️Omurice has a lot of cheese, Creamy, attractive 📍Cheese & Doria Sweets 5️⃣Crepe/Ice cream specialty store 🍦Strawberry x Aso Milk Ice Cream (550 yen) 💬The main product is Aso milk from Kumamoto Prefecture, but the ice cream tastes lighter (I personally prefer the strawberry ice cream I had in Fukuoka, which will be introduced in the next article)🍓In addition, the strawberry crepes are also very attractive 📍Futaba Fruits Parlor At the end of the show, there is another Kumamoto specialty that my family really likes - sweet potato and red bean steamed dumplings 🍡 Sakura no Baba where we can try it. We ate a lot of it at the hotel breakfast 🤭 - 🐻💬: Kumamoto city is not big, many people go back and forth to Fukuoka on the same day (40 minutes by Shinkansen from Hakata)🔁If you want to relax, you can stay for one night🏨 and taste more Kumamoto delicacies! Next time I have more time, I hope to go to Aso Volcano 🌋 + eat Kumamoto’s famous 🍜 Kurotei ramen! - 👉🏻𝑭𝒐𝒍𝒍𝒐𝒘 IG @brownlyeat 𝒇𝒐𝒓 𝒎𝒐𝒓𝒆 - #熊本熊 #bearbenfood #bearmotofree travel #bearmototravel #bearmoto #kyushutour #bearmotoview
