Mentouan

At the entrance of Nara Park, we serve simple Japanese meals. The curry udon is the best, and the prawn tempura rice is really good. The lucky bags are also delicious, with shrimps in them.

It was 12 o'clock when we came back from Nara Park. We saw a lot of people at the door and lined up to eat. The taste was delicious and very unique. My son said he wanted to go again. The four of us ate 4000+, which was acceptable.

This noodle shop specializes in udon. Business is booming, and while the storefront is nice, the interior is quite small. The set menus are quite filling, enough for one person to eat quite comfortably. They also sell single bowls, though you'll need to know Japanese.

After visiting Nara Park in the morning, I was going to eat at Shizuka, but I gave up when I saw the line was too long, and went to Mendouan, which I didn’t eat the night before. This shop has a small storefront, and I felt relieved when I saw that there were only a few people at the door, but I didn’t expect that someone pointed to the line across the street... In the end, I still had to wait for 40 minutes... Several customers had already left, and no one came to take care of us. Later, I found out that there was only one waiter, an old lady, who served the dishes, cleaned the tables, and cashed... The noodles were quite delicious, and the soup was very fresh and sweet, but not the kind of sweetness that Hunanese people can’t stand. My boyfriend ordered curry, which was also delicious, sweet and spicy, and I always couldn’t stand sweet and spicy food, but I thought it was delicious.

I waited in line for nearly an hour and had the signature clear soup lucky bag. The lucky bag contained udon noodles, which were very light and warm. This is the most delicious udon noodles in the world! The lucky bag is cute! The soup is clear and fresh. The tofu skin is delicious! A must-eat when you come to Nara

This is a very popular small shop selling udon noodles. This is the first time I have seen this way of eating. There is not a single noodle in the big bowl. The udon noodles are all in a lucky bag made of tofu skin, and the mouth of the bag is tied with kelp. It is very creative. The udon soup is very light, but very fresh and tastes good. A meal costs 3400 yen. Recommended.

The store is not big, with only one waitress, an old lady, who was busy serving food, collecting money, and showing us seats. So she was slow to call numbers, and there were many people queuing at the door. We went there around 3pm, and there was still a line at the door... The noodles are very unique, with fried tofu in bags on the outside and udon noodles inside. We had a set meal, and a fried shrimp rice, which tasted pretty good.
