Overview

250-year-old somen noodle district where workshops sell thick hand-stretched noodles direct.

Tsurugi's Handa district has produced hand-stretched somen noodles for over 250 years, using cold mountain water and Yoshino River winds for natural drying. The noodles are distinctly thicker than standard somen, yielding a satisfyingly chewy bite. Small workshops along the main road sell direct and several serve them fresh, chilled over ice or warm in dashi broth.
