Tried the Chicken Nanba Udon at Taishoan in Ishibanecho Nishinomiya! [Nishitsu Gourmet]

Nishi2’s food writer introduces restaurants she’s visited in this series, “Nishi2 Gourmet.”
This time, I went to

soba restaurant “Taishoan”, about a 1-minute walk from Hankyu Kurakuen-guchi Station (*’ω’ﾉ

Actually, Taishoan…
will close permanently on May 6, 2019, at the end of Golden Week.

It’s really sad, but

the cherry blossoms look beautiful from inside the restaurant,
so why not visit it as one of this year’s cherry blossom viewing spots?✨

Since it was cherry blossom season,
there were already people lined up before the 11:00 opening, and the restaurant filled up within minutes❗️

When Mii left the restaurant, the place was packed with customers!

Now then, let’s introduce what I ate this time✨

★ Chicken Nanba Udon（750 yen）

The chicken and bonito-scented broth were delicious, and the aroma really whetted my appetite❤️

The udon had a nice firmness, and the flavor of the broth had soaked in nicely. So good☺️✨

There were about four bite-sized pieces of chicken inside.

There were also plenty of large pieces of onion, making it very satisfying to eat.

The portion of noodles was pretty generous too, so I was completely full😆✨

It was so delicious❤️
Thank you for the meal❗️

During cherry blossom season, it gets crowded, so they may ask customers to share tables…

Also, from 11:00 to 15:00, stays of over one hour are not allowed, so please keep that in mind❗️

Lastly, here’s the cherry blossom view from the counter seats↓

If you’re going for cherry blossom viewing, the counter seats are recommended✨

This may be your last chance, so please consider visiting for this year’s cherry blossom viewing✨
