🍤 Tempura Udon Loved by Travelers — Experience the True Taste of Japan in Nara

If you’re visiting Nara and want to experience authentic Japanese cuisine, don’t miss the Tempura Udon at Udon Shokunin Wa Seimenjo.
This local favorite combines crispy handmade tempura with chewy udon noodles served in a delicate, umami-rich broth — a true expression of Japan’s “dashi” culture.

Our dashi (broth) is slowly simmered for over 12 hours using a blend of Rishiri kelp, thick-cut bonito flakes, mackerel flakes, and Iriko dried sardines.
The result is a light yet flavorful soup that enhances the natural sweetness of the tempura and the silky texture of the noodles.

All tempura is freshly fried upon order, using locally sourced vegetables and plump shrimp from trusted suppliers.
The moment you dip the crispy tempura into the warm dashi, the batter soaks up the broth’s aroma — an unforgettable harmony of textures and flavors.
