Just when we thought that things cannot get any better. We had already had the rare opportunity to view Mt Fuji in her full, "naked" splendour ( clear cloudless half hour at dawn this morning, after 2 days of almost zero visibility ). Then we decided to sign up for both the traditional hoto noodle cooking class as well as the tempura cooking class at Houto Labo. The 2 hour lesson became the new highlight of our visit to the Lake district.The facility is spotlessly clean, the host, Chef / Owner, Kato Shinichi, is warm, patient and professional.The lesson included making hoto noodles, unique to the region, from scratch with Kato demonstrating thoroughly the techniques for properly kneading the dough, cutting the dough into noodles, and making the broth to go with the noodles. We chose the traditional pumpkin broth ( seafood being he other option ), which was simple but satisfying.The same goes for preparing the tempura batter, getting the fryer oil to proper temperature, coating and frying the vegetables and prawns. All the ingredients provided was fresh and of high quality.The best part, at the end of the lesson, was sitting down for a meal to enjoy the finished product.On this day, we were fortunate enough that Kato and his lovely staff had some time between lessons to join us for the meal and to chat about life in general. We took advantage of their warm hospitality to while away an hour or so of the afternoon. At that moment, we were not just students, we were a part of their extended family.And if that didn't make us love them enough, Kato even drove us back to our hotel on the opposite side of the lake when our visit was over.Please, if you happen to be in the Lake Kawaguchiko area, sign up for a lesson. We are very glad we did because now, I feel totally confident about making my own noodles and tempura at home.Highly Recommend.

We a family of 7 wanted to have an early lunch before making the trip to 5th Station of Mount Fuji. Spotted the restaurant across the station and went in- found a relatively packed restaurant, many customers left their luggage bags at the luggage holding place at the entrance. We had chanced upon a restaurant serving the local dish-Houtou noodles (flat and wide udon) in a tasty soup; this dish is only available in the Yamanashi prefecture. We had to sit at different table as there was not table for 7 of us. The 4 of us who sat together ordered 2 Houtou Noodles and 2 pork rice - that turned out sufficient for 6 people. The texture of the noodles was great and the soup was very tasty; the pork in the pork rice melts in the mouth. Great experience!

Firstly, this restaurant serves horse meat and bear meat. Yes you heard me right. So if you are an animal rights activists, skip this. We ordered both pumpkin and pork noodles. Stick with pumpkin vege noodle. Hoto noodles was a cross between Ban mee and hokkien mee...my Singapore/Malaysian counterparts will understand. Broth was rich but a little too salty for me. Add in their special chilli powder and the whole meal was quite potent...very nice.
