In the corner of farmer’s market in Ginoza is Cream Cream. A little soft serve ice cream shop with local fresh milk. No artificial colors, flavors or preservatives.
Ryukyu Chinese restaurant at Kanucha Resort. It’s not known very much, but they have chinese dim sum buffet on weekends only. And it’s surprisingly JPY2000 (JPY2160 with tax).
A very popular thai restaurant in Okinawa-shi. We think this is the best Thai food in Okinawa we’ve found so far. They have menu in English.
Located in the middle of farming field of Ginoza, Kino Store provides house-made sweets with selected ingredients. It’s very likely that they sell out in late afternoon.
Located in the beautiful Maeda cape, which is the popular diving spot for “Blue Cave”, Enzo is a fancy restaurant which serves Napoli pizza and other Italian cuisine.
An old Okinawan house cafe which features Ohagi, a very common sweets in Japan. It’s a kind of food that reminds us of our grandmothers.
A very simple, yet, unique Ramen restaurant. Try Shio (salt) Ramen. Light noodles in the soup which is made from pork bones, chicken bones, and vegetables.
Okinawan fish ‘n’ chips are here. All handmade for “crispy outside, juicy inside” with carefully selected ingredients.
A hybrid cafe of Kyoto tradition and Okinawa goodies. Enjoy Udon and rice bowl with high quality Japanese traditional broth. Japanese sweets are great too.
If you are from a coffee-rich city in the world, you will probably be disappointed at coffee here. There are still a few coffee shops that I can recommend. This is one of them.
When you come to Okinawa, eat pork. And Manmi is the pork specialist. It’s Yaki-Niku, a Japanese style of grill-your-own-meat BBQ.
Our most favorite ramen restaurant on the island! Tonkotsu (pork soup) base Ramen and Tsukemen (dip noodle) with medium heavy noodle.
