It is very popular in Nara, which is to wrap sushi in persimmon leaves. It tastes pretty good. The salmon inside has the taste of persimmon, which is very delicious. I asked for takeout, and the packaging was very good.
Kakinohasushitanaka, the name of the restaurant is a long list. To be honest, if it weren't for the recommendation of a local friend, it would be difficult for tourists to find this restaurant by themselves. The sashimi here is particularly fresh. It looks very appetizing.

The sushi made with persimmon leaves tastes very good, and the glutinous rice inside has a fresh fragrance of persimmon. Generally, a set meal has five sushis, which is basically enough to fill you up. It is a quite creative way of making it.
After watching the deer and visiting the National Museum, I suddenly felt hungry, so I started looking for food. It is said that Nara's persimmon leaf sushi is very famous. The result of discussion was that we must try it, so we saw the sign of persimmon sushi at the door and ran straight in. Three people ordered three different sets of meals, I ordered seafood rice, one ordered persimmon leaf sushi set, and the other ordered cold noodles and sushi set. Haha, I think mine is the best. The legendary persimmon leaf sushi is really not good. The salmon in it is marinated and refrigerated, which is not to our taste. The cold noodles are also good, icy and cool, very refreshing.

This is a popular chicken noodle soup restaurant. It is very good with the specialty pork meat. The noodles are very elastic and handmade. I also recommend the milk pudding, which is really delicious and has a strong milk flavor.
The noodles are thin but elastic. The soup is rich but feels slightly salty. The side dishes are also exquisite. There were quite a lot of people when I went there but there was no queue. Overall it was pretty good. The noodles are thin but elastic. The soup is rich but feels slightly salty. The side dishes are also exquisite.

Eat at Zhijinxiang Park Store. After eating it for N days, I bit my tongue N times and it finally started to bleed. But I still endured the pain and ate all the seven Nara items. Crab, shrimp, chicken shoots, eel, peas, mushrooms, strange side dishes and fragrant crispy rice. The waiter said cash only when paying the bill, which made us a little embarrassed when we didn't have enough cash.
According to the guide, Nara's specialties are only persimmon leaf sushi and kamameshi. I ate persimmon leaf sushi at the old shop when I came here before, and I thought it was just average, so I wanted to eat kamameshi this time. This Shizuka is a popular online store in Nara, and it is basically recommended on major travel websites, and there are several branches. I chose this one next to Nara Park. It turns out that the store is remote, but there is no one around at night, which is very cool. Ordering here is basically a kamameshi set meal per person, and you can choose what to eat. The feature is the Nara seven kinds of kamameshi here. The things in it are not as rich as imagined. Anyway, there is a little bit of each. It is better to have an eel kamameshi directly. The overall serving speed is not fast, the taste is not bad, and there is a special teaching method to eat it, in order to get the rice crust. In general, it is average, and it is more famous.

Mizutani Teahouse in the ski town Sells watery cream cake rolls, hot spring coffee, sweet wine, and hot spring pudding. In the evening, there was no one in the store, so we wanted to go in and order a table. As a result, the waitress said that the cakes were almost gone. We swept the remaining four items and ordered hot spring coffee and sweet wine. The lady stood behind the counter and made coffee, and we stared at the snow in the house. The heavy snow flooded the window and the foot bath at the door of the store. The cake roll is just an ordinary cream cake roll, but it is very soft and watery. I feel very satisfied to eat it in the countryside. The cheesecake is not bad. The hot spring coffee is really not good! ! The sweet wine is made of rice koji, not brewed with sake lees, sugar and water, so it has a natural sweet fragrance, the rice grains are sticky and sticky, and the taste is wonderful.
It's a small thatched house on the mountain. The tempura udon noodles inside are very good. The tempura prawns are very big. It is a relatively convenient fast food restaurant, but the prices are much more expensive in the mountains.

At the entrance of Nara Park, we serve simple Japanese meals. The curry udon is the best, and the prawn tempura rice is really good. The lucky bags are also delicious, with shrimps in them.
It was 12 o'clock when we came back from Nara Park. We saw a lot of people at the door and lined up to eat. The taste was delicious and very unique. My son said he wanted to go again. The four of us ate 4000+, which was acceptable.

The store is so small! There is a long table with customers sitting opposite each other, a typical Japanese movie style of a small restaurant or tavern. There is no decoration on the wall, two or three chefs, two or three waiters. The texture and taste of the udon noodles are really good, with a strong noodle aroma. The tempura prawns are large and a little alkaline, so I have to reduce the score. The best dish is their signature casserole vegetable noodles.

Among the ramen restaurants in Nara, this one is quite popular and is also the one recommended by tourists. It mainly serves spicy ramen, so many Chinese people like it, but it is really spicy.
Nara | Japan's ancient capital, a famous historical and cultural city This place contains the genes of the prosperous Tang Dynasty in the Middle Ages. It is also called a miniature version of "Chang'an". It has many ancient temples and shrines. Nara's living signboard is the herds of deer that roam in the city. They gather between Nara Park and the mountains. Every time I come here, I will climb Mount Wakakusa. On the top of the mountain, I can see the Great Buddha Hall and the Nara Basin. When the weather is clear, I can also see Kyoto in the distance. The young man ran up in one breath. He also met a guitar master on the top of the mountain and listened to a free concert. Today's animation cloud is beautiful.
