Authentic Udon Making Experience at Taishoan Kamaharu in Aichi Prefecture

At the long-established Taishoan Kamaharu Main Shop, the birthplace of kama-age udon, you can enjoy a hands-on program where you dress in traditional craftsman attire and experience authentic udon-making. Roll the dough, knead it with your feet, stretch it with a rolling pin, and cut it with a knife. Afterwards, boil the noodles you made yourself and savor them together with freshly prepared tempura—a truly special experience. While cooking, the shop owner will explain how wheat becomes noodles and share historical records about Tokugawa Ieyasu, the great shogun born in Okazaki, who was known to love udon. As a souvenir, you’ll receive a craftsman’s hat to take home. The shop is conveniently located right in front of the station, making train access easy. After your experience, you can also enjoy sightseeing nearby at famous attractions such as the Hatcho Miso Brewery and Okazaki Castle. We warmly invite you to join us for this unique cultural experience!
