"Featured in Osaka Tours (on YouTube) this no-frills udon shop is open early for breakfast.
The breakfast special is just 390yen but often sold out unless you're there very early. But don't worry, all other items can still be purchased!
The udon here is super thick and made with whole wheat flour. There is a ticket vending machine, but you can use google translate on your phone if you can't understand anything as everything is written clearly in print font.
Menu basics: all the udon is charged as the basic udon serving style, and you can add toppings as you please. There are pictures available to help you see the different looking combos of udon + toppings.
Types of udon:
1. kake = plain warm udon served in warm broth
2. bukake = udon with a stronger broth served on the side rather than a soupy broth
3. kamaage = warm starchy udon, more chewy, great with a raw egg, you mix it in and it cooks in the hot noodles like a Japanese cabonara!
4. tsudachi = this is a special udon served with thinly sliced local sudachi-limes (might be only in the summertime)
5. curry udon = warm udon served in a curry flavoured broth
