Memories of being brought here when I was a child come flooding back. The nostalgic restaurant hasn't changed since long ago, with a Showa-era vibe. I was served delicious Ibo no Ito noodles boiled by a professional, and the natural spring water flowing around really refreshed me. Since I'm dining alone, I had no hesitation in using chopsticks. The salt-grilled rainbow trout was light and delicious. Being raised in a clear stream, it had no fishy smell at all and was full of flavor. It disappeared in no time along with the rice balls. The famous fried sweet potatoes will have to be saved for next time.

In the tank inside the restaurant, there are many rainbow trouts swimming (you can also enjoy them salt-grilled). They also sell rare items like ageimo around here, so it's recommended to stop by for a break.
