Today (7/10), I had the opportunity 😆 to cover the hop harvest It was my first time to see a hop field this year, but... It was ✨✨ spectacular Healthy dark green leaves on straight stems, hop berries that are bell-shaped...! "It's a shame to see this scene today!" I looked at 👀 it with the Production Preparations are ready, and it's time to 💪 harvest It is difficult 💦 to remove the wires that support it because there are so many fruits I'm going to put the harvested hops in a bag, but I don't think they'll fit in the truck I'm going to put on today Squid ... It was an amount that made 😂 me worry Processing these hops into a beer 🍺 with a fresh aroma I drank it last year, and it was a beer that I 😆👍 could drink with a refreshing aroma I'm 😍 looking forward to this year's beer.

#009 There are about 50 restaurants and confectionery shops in Tonomachi. This is the second installment of the Gourmet series! We would like to introduce an Udon noodles restaurant that opened in May of the first year of Reiwa and is now popular outside Tonomachi. ~Now it's all "Specialties of Tono"~ Hidenoya Udon noodles (Hinoya Udon noodles) Gari off the Tono Interchange, turn left at the first traffic light, and after a short distance, you will see a sign for "Udon noodles" on your left. That is the "Hidenoya Udon noodles" introduced this time. In most cases, the Car parking lot at lunchtime is Car full. We will introduce the recommended menu of Hidenoya Udon noodles, desserts that only those in the know know, and when you should go at the Time Slot / Time of Day. ◆ Recommended menu (including my recommendation) 〇Vegetable tempura bukkake Udon noodles Vegetables are purchased at Roadside Stations or wholesale directly from farmers. Therefore, all of them are vegetables from Tonomachi. The vegetables are sweet and the batter is crispy! It's addictive!! 〇Meat ball bukkake Udon noodles The simmered beef goes well with the broth and hot balls, and it's delicious!! I recommend this to students and meat Udon noodles lovers! By the way, it is my recommendation. (laughs) In addition, there are also "Ume Plum Grated Bukkake Udon Noodles" and "Cold Zaru Udon Noodles" that you will want to eat this season, as well as a set menu of Udon noodles and tempura! Here, we will also introduce a surprisingly unknown dessert after a aftermeal. It is "homemade soy milk pudding". In fact, there are customers who come for this dessert and this pudding. I sometimes go there for this. But it's delicious because it's eaten after Udon noodles! Homemade looks delicious, doesn't it? Black honey and powder are sprinkled from the top of the pudding, and its smoothness and slight sweetness give you an Impression that you have never eaten before. I lived in Kagawa for university, so I ate a lot of Chewy Udon noodles and delicious Udon noodles. However, the noodles at "Hidenoya Udon noodles" are chewy, and you can feel the Commitment in the broth and ingredients, and they are unique, so I personally think that "Hidenoya Udon noodles" is the most delicious. I was surprised by the Commitment and delicacy of the manager of this shop. When you stop by Tonomachi, be sure to come and eat the exquisite Udon noodles. Finally, when is the best Time Slot / Time of Day? Weekdays, it is recommended to come at the same time as the store opens or after 1:30. It depends on the day, but this Time Slot / Time of Day is good! On Vacation days, it is basically full! ◆ Outline of the store Business hours 11:00~14:30 Regular holiday Tuesday (with temporary closure) ☎　　　　０９８３－３２－８３１１ Instagram⇒＠hinoyaudon
