Enjoy Awamori made at Onna Brewery in a shop beloved by locals

This restaurant has been serving Okinawan home cooking for over 20 years since it opened, and is loved by tourists and locals alike.

It also pairs perfectly with "suchika," salted pork, and "tofuyo," island tofu soaked in awamori. There are also awamori cocktails made by mixing awamori with tropical juice.

5Okinawan cuisine Yanbaru
Enjoy healthy Agu pork and island vegetables in a tajine pot

This is a specialty store that uses Yanbaru Agu pork as a tagine pot. You can enjoy steamed Agu pork and island vegetables in a colorful, cone-shaped tagine pot. As the food is cooked using only the moisture from the ingredients, tagine pots allow you to eat lots of vegetables, making them perfect for health-conscious people. Yanbaru Agu pork has no unpleasant odor and is characterized by a meltingly sweet taste. You can also enjoy the natural flavor of island vegetables such as bitter melon, loofah, and purple sweet potato. The dish is finished off simply with seasonings such as Aguni salt, black pepper, yuzu pepper, or ponzu sauce.
The final dish, lard risotto made with meat and vegetable broth, is also a must-have.

Another popular dish is the lard risotto, made by adding lard, garlic soy sauce, and cheese to a broth that is packed with the flavors of meat and vegetables after the tagine steaming. There are many regulars who come just for this delicious risotto. The tagine steaming course meal includes a lard risotto or abura-soba-style Okinawa soba noodles, a small assortment of three side dishes, and dessert.
