Should meet with Unties that can tell you many interesting local stories!

This is a cozy restaurant where you can enjoy a variety of homemade dishes made with local ingredients. The specially-made tender simmered sweetfish was delicious. The mothers of people in Hitoyoshi warmly welcome you, making you feel like you are returning home. Despite suffering great damage during the flooding, they have worked hard for the community and continue to operate energetically. A miraculous large wooden horse, Kiji-kun, which was swept away during the flooding and later found in Yatsushiro Bay, serves as the protector god of the restaurant, welcoming customers. Along with your meal, be sure to visit and meet Kiji-kun. The restaurant operates by reservation only.

You can enjoy authentic cuisine in a lovely ambiance. Highly recommended for those interested in learning about Jiuqu and fermentation.

You should definitely meet up with the local aunties who can share fascinating stories about the area!
