🍜 Yik Fa Qi Zi Noodles, Central Street驛釜きしめん 中央通り

At Nagoya Station's lobby, you can easily enjoy the local specialty "Kishimen" at a dining establishment. The location is right next to the Shinkansen ticket gate, making it convenient to dine after arriving by train. The key to its deliciousness lies in the dipping sauce, which is made from a broth simmered with bonito flakes and mackerel flakes, combined with a soy sauce that creates a rich yet refreshing flavor. The noodles come from the long-established noodle shop "Yoshida Noodle Co." founded in 1890, which uses only carefully selected domestic flour and salt. Based on years of accumulated data, they adjust the flour ratio and salt concentration according to the season and weather, resulting in a texture that is soft and elastic, reminiscent of hand-pulled noodles. The perfectly blended chewy noodles with the rich dipping sauce are highly recommended. In addition to the standard Kishimen, the shop also offers various combinations such as fried vegetable Kishimen and pork Kishimen. During the summer, cold Kishimen is available for enjoyment. The delicious Kishimen is also suitable for breakfast. The shop opens at 7 AM, and on weekdays before 9 AM, they offer a set meal featuring the Nagoya specialty "Fried Shrimp Rice Ball" paired with Kishimen.

The noodles have a texture that is soft and elastic, just like handmade noodles. The noodles, carefully crafted by a long-established noodle shop in Nagoya, pair excellently with the dipping sauce. They start serving early in the morning, making it a great option for breakfast as well.
