Actually, Fukuoka people's everyday meal is udon rather than ramen. The opposite of Sanuki, 'Hakata udon' has soft, spreading noodles, and burdock tempura (gobo-ten) rising over the broth is the signature. A local-food route including the birthplace temple of udon, soba, and manju.

    Makino Udon牧のうどん

    Noodles · 30 min stay

    Noodles so soft they keep soaking up the broth, so they refill the broth from a tin kettle—a unique style. Experience the extreme of Fukuoka's 'soft-noodle' udon.
