Udon
At shinshoji temple,our udon is prepared with a delicate,
crystal-clear broth made from kombu kelp and shiitake mashrooms,served with fine,smooth noodles that glide gently on the palate.
The dish is completed with shinshoji own carefully crafted aromatic seasoning.
Handmade salted rice balls are also available to enjoy alongside your meal.
With a comforting broth that warms a weary heart and nourishing shojin-style furikake,this udon is a bowl to be savored with all five senses.

You can enjoy a cup of sencha, Japanese tea, with a close look at the garden in silence, while taking a rest of your visit.
