Kumatamaya

The quick service, ideal location (inside Kumagaya Station) and low prices mean that the ten seats along the counter at this simple udon (wheat noodle) joint are always occupied. Kumatamaya's most popular dish is ‘niku negi tsukejiru udon’ (¥600): cold noodles made from 100 percent local wheat, served with a hot dipping  sauce topped with pork and leek.
