Oita Pref. Beppushi Furomoto 5 pairs

This is a facility where one can try “jigoku mushi (literally, hell steaming),” a traditional cooking method passed down from the Edo era in which foods are steamed to degrees of up to 98°C using the hot steam from the hot spring water, and the rapid process condenses their flavor. Foodstuffs for hell steaming are available on site, or one can bring their own. Inside the facility are also exhibits on the history of Kanawa, hot springs and hell steaming, a drinking area, and free-to-use foot steamer and bath.

This place is popular, we waited an hour though the queue is very well managed. We weren’t so hungry so we shared a vegetable platter and the manjuku buns. Very cool experience to steam the food...

とり天発祥の店。土曜の昼頃に着くと待つ人が外まで溢れていて、受付をすると1時間待ちと。店を離れ近くを40分ほど散策し戻ると自分の番まで3組待ち。まもなく呼ばれ、二階席へ。とり天定食を注文。衣にしっかり味があり、たれを付けなくても十分このままでも美味しい。とり天最高！一緒に行った人が麻婆豆腐のセットにしていたので少し味見をしましたが、辛さよりも醤油のしょっぱさが強く、こちらはいまひとつ。接客もとても...

The longstanding establishment is also the flagship location of a chain of restaurants with franchises across the Kyushu region and the rest of Japan.

Oita Areas

A trip to Oita is tantamount to a long soak in the Beppu baths. The mountainous, coastal prefecture of Oita is renowned for having more onsen than any other prefecture in Japan, most of which lie in the city of Beppu on the west coast of Kyushu, recognizable by its pungent sulphuric aroma and the clouds of steam that puff up across the hillside. Away from the Beppu hot springs await mountains, waterfalls, and temples, so don’t hesitate to explore Oita a little further.
