The wood counter is a little wobbly and the chefs are elderly and absolutely not interested in rushing. This old-school udon shop is credited with pioneering Osaka's zaru style, serving chewy, hand-cut noodles cold alongside a dipping sauce. The chefs slice the dough by hand with Japanese knives, which gives the noodles a smoothness a machine can't quite replicate. A bowl here feels like lunch at someone's kitchen, which is more or less the point.
