I would like to eat this trip to Fukuoka! Specialty gourmet

Fukuoka, a gourmet prefecture that is full of delicious food, with Hakata ramen as the lead. We will introduce the representative of "Fukuoka and Ago Kore!," and the food stalls. If you go on a trip to Fukuoka, you should try it.

Extremely delicious local soup "Motsunabe"

"Motsunabe", which is said to be the birthplace of Hakata, is characterized by the fact that it contains pripuri beef mochi, an iron-rich stamina ingredient. Besides motsu, you can enjoy a soup with a condensed umami flavor, with plenty of cabbage and leek.

The photo shows the "Motsunabe" from Motsuko, a famous restaurant that has been in business for over 40 years, costing 1,100 yen per person. The gyoza skin placed on top of the vegetables acts as a lid to cook the ingredients, bringing out their umami and sweetness. Be sure to try dipping the ingredients and offal cooked in chicken broth in vinegar and soy sauce.
