1. Suganoya Kamitori

食神牛A famous horse meat restaurant in Kumamoto, the shop is located on a quiet street. The storefront on the second floor is very quiet and elegant. The receptionist is very friendly. She asked if there was an appointment to arrange a seat. Fortunately, I didn't make an appointment but waited for a small private room. The shop is long and narrow, and the private room is small but clean and comfortable. The dishes are horse meat-themed sashimi, sushi, stone grilled, boiled, rice bowl, and soup. I ordered the seasonal cherry bowl for 1800 yen (limited to 10 servings per day), with pickled side dishes and miso soup. The rice bowl is rich in color, grilled horse meat, horse meat sashimi, horse meat minced, mixed with egg skin shreds and vegetables, and it is very delicious with crystal clear rice. Stone grilled cos set meal 3600 yen: First, a delicate vegetable salad with Italian spiral noodles was served, which was very refreshing with sour and sweet sauce. There are three types of horse meat sashimi: all lean, half lean, and all fat (roughly referring to the red, middle, and large belly of tuna). The meat is very fresh, delicate and tender, with a bit of toughness, and a bit of the unique aroma of horse meat. There are also three types of horse meat barbecue, and some vegetables are also served. The meat is either crispy and tender, fat and tender, and the taste is rich and delicious. The stew is made of yam, which is soft, crispy, and the soup is fresh. The pickled radish slices and pickled vegetables are also quite refreshing. The strawberry dessert is very rich and delicious. The rice is shiny, full and fragrant. I asked for apple juice for a drink. It is a highly recommended specialty restaurant with excellent dishes, service, and environment.

2. Kumamoto Ramen KOKUTEI Honten (Main Store)

No.3 of Local Restaurants in Kumamoto

翱翔的大鲨鱼The main signature ramen of Kurotei is the authentic Kumamoto family style. The difference from the general tonkotsu ramen is that there are two more egg yolks instead of soft-boiled eggs. The soup of the black garlic tonkotsu ramen is characterized by the black garlic powder fried on the rich tonkotsu broth. The tonkotsu broth itself is more refreshing than the general Hakata family style, without sand, no mouth, and no strong pig smell. Bitter with fragrance, this is the essence of Kumamoto black garlic ramen. The noodles are standard, moderately hard, and have excellent soup-holding ability, but the wheat flavor is covered by the overbearing black garlic flavor and is not prominent. There are two large pieces of barbecued pork, and the meaty aroma is very outstanding. After being dipped in black garlic powder, it feels a bit like thick bacon. The unique burnt aroma and noodles are good.

3. Tengaiten

没有蜡ollingWe had ramen for dinner. We found Tengaiten, which ranks fourth among Kumamoto cuisines. The storefront is quite small, and the seats are facing the kitchen. We ordered a bowl of Shin Ramen (choose the spiciness) and a bowl of Chashu Noodles. The noodles and soup were very good. Although the spiciness here is several degrees lower than our national spiciness. However, the website says it opens at 7 o'clock, but it actually opens at 6 o'clock. Go early to avoid queuing.

花京院点名表扬The horse meat sashimi is delicious, and the meat is of high quality. The privacy of the environment is a bit poor: during this extraordinary period, there was a table of Taiwanese people sitting next to us. When my husband and I spoke Mandarin or discussed the epidemic, they stared at us, which was very rude. Everything else was fine. We were also interviewed by a food program at Fukuoka Airport. When we talked about eating horse meat dishes, the host was very surprised and looked at the photos we took. In the end, he asked, "It's expensive, isn't it? But it's delicious."

6. Katsuretsutei Shinshigai Honten

No.1 of Local Restaurants in Kumamoto

海棠朵朵meKumamoto's very popular pork chop rice. I took a number when I entered the door. The waiting time was not bad. I ordered the most expensive set of pork chop rice. The food was a little slow, but it was worth waiting. The pork chop was particularly crispy and the meat was very tender. The snow vegetable side dishes were very delicious. It is worth checking in. I ordered a local ice sake, which was very refreshing and neat, and it was very greasy with the pork chop.

lylia71If you go to Shimabara, it is recommended to go to Himematsuya to try Guzoni~~~Guzoni is a famous local cuisine in Shimabara. Himematsuya, which is opposite Shimabara Castle, happens to be a century-old local restaurant, and Guzoni is very famous. There are many set meals corresponding to Guzoni, and I chose the bamboo set meal of 1,700 yen. After visiting Shimabara Castle, it is just right to replenish energy~ In addition to Guzoni, the set meal also includes sashimi, appetizers, rice and fruits, which are very rich in content. Guzoni is actually a variety of wild vegetables and seafood cooked with glutinous rice dumplings. It is not delicate, but very fresh. The glutinous rice dumplings are more glutinous than those in China, and a little sticky. The appetizers are also refreshing and delicious...including after-meal fruits-oranges are also sweet~~~Satisfied! There is also Unzen natto for sale in the Himematsuya store, which can be tasted. It tastes good, and 430 yen a can is not expensive~~~~You can buy it as a souvenir!

VickyqinWhen I was in Mermaid Island before, I met two Taiwanese people. When we talked about my upcoming visit to Kumamoto, they strongly recommended that I must come and eat horse meat. . . . When I first heard about it, I refused, but I thought, since I came so far, I must try it. So Xiaoyu took me to this yokobachi where you can drink and eat horse meat. Many izakayas in Japan are very interesting. They will stipulate that you can drink as much as you want within 2 hours if the average consumption per person is about 100-400 RMB! ! ! That is to say, you can drink as much as you want. . . . . This is really good news for people like me who love wine! Horse meat is a local delicacy in Kumamoto. It is said that it originated from the soldiers in the Warring States Period who slaughtered horse meat to fill their stomachs. It has a long history. It is often marked as "Sakura" on the menu because the sliced horse meat will turn into a pink cherry color soon after it comes into contact with the air. The horse meat in Kumamoto is just like Japanese sashimi. It can be eaten raw, made into sushi, fried, or made into tempura. The best part is the spine of the horse meat. When the horse meat sashimi is served, remember to eat the sashimi first. It tastes better when it is fresh. And I heard that all the edible horse meat in Japan is now concentrated in Kumamoto.
