🍜 A delicious udon restaurant I discovered while traveling in Nara, Japan

#Overseas travel 🍜 A delicious fried tofu udon restaurant discovered while traveling in Nara, Japan – Mentoan (麺闘庵) When traveling in Nara, the quiet atmosphere and traditional architecture naturally calms your mind. Among them, there was a bowl of udon that gave me an unexpected impression. It was a fried tofu udon specialty restaurant called **‘Mentoan (麺闘庵)’**. 🥢 A special bowl – Kinchaku Kitsune Udon Mentoan’s signature menu is **‘Kinchaku Kitsune Udon’**. At first glance, it looks like braised fried tofu, but when you open it, you’ll find warm udon inside. It’s like putting udon in a fried tofu pocket. The fried tofu is well-cooked with a sweet and salty flavor, and the soup is clean but has a deep, savory flavor. I thought that ordinary udon could be this special. Cash only 💰
