🏺 Saga|May 17, 2026

Saga Beef

One of Japan's finest wagyu brands. Saga Beef is known for its finely marbled texture and sweet fat — perfect for steak or shabu-shabu.

Yobuko Squid Sashimi

Fresh squid served alive at the famous Yobuko morning market. The translucent flesh is sweet and delicate, with the legs served as tempura.

Sicilian Rice

A unique Saga City B-grade gourmet dish — sautéed meat and vegetables served over white rice and topped with mayonnaise.

Arita Ware Curry

Curry served in a beautiful Arita porcelain bowl — a memorable souvenir combining Saga's pottery and food culture.

Ureshino Onsen Tofu

Tofu cooked in Ureshino's alkaline hot spring water turns silky smooth — a must-try specialty of this famous hot spring town.

Access

Saga City, Yobuko and Ureshino each offer their own specialties. The Yobuko morning market is especially popular with visitors.
