The story behind the bowl
The Kitakata branch of an Aizu institution pairs rustic hand-cut noodles with a clean salt broth, giving travelers a useful link between neighboring noodle traditions.
Before you go: Choose the hand-cut noodle option when available; texture is the reason to make this stop.
