Ogura Honten

This place is famous because it is the origin of Chicken Nanban, which is the number one food in Miyazaki. It tastes like sweet and sour chicken, but better. The chicken is juicy and tender, yet crispy on the outside. It is topped with the original gravy, which is like a source of deliciousness. You must try this dish when you visit Miyazaki, and this place does it best.

Exclusive interview with this ancestral store. It takes about 20 minutes to walk from Miyazaki JR Station and is easy to find on the street. There are not many options on the menu, but the focus is on the Nanban chicken. It tastes good, the portion is very sufficient, and the service is very friendly. It’s a good try!

Following up on the previous note, I will now introduce two restaurants that you must try in Miyazaki Prefecture. The specific location is in the downtown area of ​​​​Miyazaki City, about 10 minutes walk from JR Miyazaki Station. All the attractions do not require transportation, just walk! 1⃣️Ami no Ogura　 It is said that this restaurant is the originator of Nanban chicken. Mayonnaise and fried chicken really go well together! What’s more, their fried chicken is not crispy, but moist. Although it doesn’t have a crispy texture, the dense coating wraps the tender and juicy chicken, and it is really amazing when paired with mayonnaise! In addition, chopped eggs are added to the mayonnaise, which tastes very good. It would be a shame not to try Nanban Chicken when you come to Miyazaki Prefecture! The Nanban Chicken Set Meal is 1,180 yen. The price has increased compared to before, but there is nothing we can do about it as the raw materials are all going up in price. However, the portion is large and the taste is very good, so I highly recommend it. 🎯Address: Miyazaki Prefecture, Miyazaki City, Tachibana-dori Higashi 3-4 Aji no Ora Ceremony 🚌Access: 10 minutes walk from JR Miyazaki Station. The restaurant is located in the central area of ​​Miyazaki city. 2⃣️Maruman Yakitori Main Store A long-established store with 70 years of history! The most famous thing is their roast chicken thighs! Very very delicious! I'm drooling just talking about it! Their specialty is that they use old chicken, which is very chewy and tough! The chicken skin is crispy! It's very chewy, and the more you chew it, the more delicious it becomes. One plate is not enough for one person! When you order chicken, you will also get a bowl of chicken soup. This chicken soup is made from chicken bones and it is very fragrant! If you like to eat offal, you can also order a dish of chicken offal stew, which is sweet and perfect as a side dish for drinking! 🎯Address: 3-6-7 Tachibana-dori Nishi, Miyazaki City, Miyazaki Prefecture 🚌Access: 13-minute walk from JR Miyazaki Station 3⃣️Mangoes in Miyazaki Prefecture The most famous fruit in Miyazaki Prefecture should be mangoes. Because Miyazaki Prefecture has plenty of sunlight all year round, it produces very good mangoes! But you can see that mangoes are really not cheap, one costs 3,800 yen! I just bought one at a fruit store. It was really sweet and had no residue! It's amazing! Friends who are interested can also go to the supermarket to have a look, maybe there will be surprises. The mango season is from April to July every year. 4⃣️Miyazaki City Hall There is a tree-lined avenue nearby, where markets or other activities are held on weekends. If you have time, it is very comfortable to take a walk here! Generally speaking, these two notes only introduce the southern part of Miyazaki Prefecture. There are many places, such as the Takachiho area in the north, that are worth exploring! I’ll introduce it to you next time! [Grin] #Local food #Try the authentic old brand
