Itosho Motu Noodle Stew - Toyama

This restaurant is very popular, many people have come because the mochu udon made home, very tasty and affordable

The place was small, but eating was so good! probably the best garlic-miso motsu udon I had in japan! it is also part of the 2021 michelin guide so they know that they don't go wrong here. highly recommended!

Japanese tonpot udon! yummy miso suppee and chew udon noos. and tons pork! there are other types of Udon/Toppings, but this is their subscript court. the suppe is rich and a little spicy. a bowl (850yen is very fillable. a guy sitting next to me, ordered a bowl of rice with his tonpot udon. (I: the heart wants to do the same, but the body says no! tummy is full...

We go there expecting a claypot udon topped by meat or tofu, but upon reaching there it was pig innards (stomach and intestines). We brace ourselves as it is packed by locals. We order one for share, but ho and behold, it is very delicious. The innards are very soft, and tasty, because it is flavored before. The soup is miso based, cooked with dried kombu/seaweed. So it is very tasty. Even though we eat it with bowl of rice, we still hungry for more. So we order additional bowl. It is that tasty. You will seldom find a place selling claypot stew with innards in Japan, it is a must try.

Known for their delicious motsu-udon. Had a great experience,even had to wait almost an hour from waiting on the queue until serving.
