Choosing a meal in Kagawa
Sanuki udon is Kagawa’s everyday noodle draw. Anmochi zoni is traditionally eaten at New Year and may appear as a winter restaurant dish. Check the menu rather than expecting it year-round.
Tips for choosing a restaurant
Plan a Sanuki udon meal during a Takamatsu or Kotohira visit. If you’re also taking a ferry, give lunch enough time rather than squeezing it in just before departure.
What else could you see nearby?
Would you rather take your time in Takamatsu and Ritsurin Garden or catch a ferry to an island? For Shodoshima’s Angel Road, both the ferry schedule and low tide determine when the sandbar is walkable.
