Tsurube (Udon restaurant)

A visit to the Iwami region of Shimane should include some local cuisine. Japan is famed for its delicious food, and Tsurube is no exception.

It is an udon or noodle restaurant, famous for curry udon. Flat noodles match the spicy curry soup. But it gives an edge to people’s appetite. You can try many kinds of udon in Tsurube. For example, Wild vegetable-Udon which has a lot of wild vegetables from the local area and the soup is light. Udon is good for digestion and easy for children to eat.
