About
Marugame Udon opened at 114 Middlesex Street in Spitalfields in 2021, marking the European debut of Kobe-based Toridoll Holdings' global udon chain, which traces its origins to the founder's revelation watching a small udon factory in Kagawa Prefecture in 2000. The open kitchen concept places dough-rolling, pressing and hand-cutting in full view, showcasing the Sanuki udon tradition from Kagawa. Noodles are served in broths or stir-fried, accompanied by fried tempura made to order. No Michelin recognition.
