Beyond Udon: Discover Kagawa’s Bone-In Chicken🍗🍗
Think Kagawa is all about udon?🤓 Meet another local favorite: honetsuki-dori!😁
Originating in Marugame, this bone-in chicken leg is seasoned with garlic and spices, then roasted until the skin is deliciously crisp.

Part of the fun is choosing between two styles:
🐤Waka (young chicken) — tender and juicy.
🐔Oya (mature chicken) — firm and chewy, with a rich flavor that develops with every bite.

Here’s a tasty tip: dip some cabbage or an onigiri rice ball into the savory juices left on your plate!🥬 After a day of exploring Kagawa, make dinner part of the adventure.😉👍 Which would you try first — Waka or Oya? 😋
