[New store in Hakata Ward] A must-try for noodle lovers! A udon store that's notable for its "wide, chewy homemade noodles" (Fukuoka)

Hello! I'm Hakata Aya, a writer who loves hot information about Fukuoka.

This time, we will introduce a newly opened udon restaurant in Mugino, Hakata-ku, Fukuoka City that serves homemade noodles. You can also enjoy rare noodles.

Opening August 1st! Freshly made and boiled homemade noodles "Udon Hanawa" (Mugino, Hakata Ward, Fukuoka City)

Udon Hanawa opened on August 1, 2024, just a two-minute walk from the east exit of Nishitetsu Zasshonokuma Station. Follow the Hakata Police Station Mugino Police Box as a landmark and you'll see it on the first floor of a nearby apartment building.

There is a noodle machine installed at the entrance of the shop, so you can enjoy freshly made homemade noodles every morning, and boiled freshly after an order is placed.

It's fun to be able to see the noodle making process from the store front! It's not often that you get a chance to see this, so my elementary school-aged child who came with me was very interested.

The restaurant has counter seats and raised seating, and has a relaxed, comfortable atmosphere.

The raised seating is a sunken kotatsu style, so you can stretch your legs and relax.

There were USB ports and power outlets at the counter seats on both sides of the kitchen.

"Burdock Tempura Udon" with its delicious rich broth and flat noodles

First up is the Hakata classic "Burdock Tempura Udon" (680 yen).

The flat noodles have a chewy texture.

The clear soup is well seasoned. The flavor of bonito fills your mouth and goes perfectly with the noodles!

The burdock tempura is served on a separate plate, so you can enjoy it as it is, or put it on top of your udon noodles.

It is boiled and then deep-fried, so the flavor is well-absorbed. The batter is thin and crispy, and it's very delicious!

Wide noodles that are 5 to 6 times wider than regular udon! The popular "Pork Zaru (mixed portion)"

They also serve regular udon, but don't miss the owner's recommended "Pork Zaru (mixed portion)" (1,230 yen). This is a tsukemen that you can enjoy two types of noodles: regular flat noodles and wide noodles that are 5 to 6 times wider than regular flat noodles!

It's incredibly long and translucently thin.

The dipping sauce, which contains plenty of pork and spring onions, has a rich flavor that clings to the noodles perfectly!

The wide noodles have an exquisite texture that I've never tasted before, as they pop in your mouth. They're delicious just as they are, and I was impressed!

It was also fun to compare it with regular noodles.

There are also many other unique menu items, such as the [Sukiyaki Udon] (1,650 yen) made with Japanese Black Beef and the [Mentaiko Cream Udon] (1,480 yen) topped with a whole stalk of Spicy Fish Eggs.
