    Kagawa Prefecture, located in northeastern Shikoku, is widely known as Japan’s “Udon Prefecture.” This reputation comes not only from its high number of udon restaurants, but also from the deep connection between locals and their daily bowl of noodles. In Kagawa, udon is more than a meal—it is part of everyday life, and it is common to visit multiple shops to compare taste and texture. Sanuki udon is known for its firm, chewy noodles and simple yet flavorful broth made from ingredients such as dried sardines and kelp. This simplicity allows each shop to develop its own unique style, creating a culture of “udon hopping.” Many shops follow a casual, self-service style, reflecting the region’s practical food culture. While seafood and seasonal ingredients from the Seto Inland Sea also play a role, udon remains the true symbol of Kagawa’s food culture.
