Udon

Never mind the name – this is a curry shop, and a pretty special one at that. They've come up with their original version of the soup curry that's supposed to be eaten without mixing in the rice with the soup. The custom takes some getting used to at first, but actually works pretty well. The 'night soup' (¥800) is a safe choice for first-timers, and consists of juicy chicken and a slightly oily but oh-so-good basil soup. Tends to get crowded around noon, so going around 2pm is recommended.
