Fukuoka is famous for its yatai (food stalls), and recently, newly opened yatai have been gaining attention. Among them, “Ultra C” stands out! Here’s a closer look at this popular spot based on our recent visit.
What is “Ultra C”?
The glittering signboard of Ultra C catches your eye in Hakata’s nightlife. In winter, a transparent cover hides the signboard, but step inside, and you’ll find a clean, modern, and comfortable atmosphere that redefines traditional yatai expectations.
The friendly and charming owner adds to the appeal, ensuring a warm welcome and a relaxed dining experience even for first-timers.
Winter Favorites: Oden and Hot Dumplings
In winter, the must-try dish at Ultra C is their oden. This seasonal dish is perfect for cold weather, with each ingredient simmered to perfection, providing warmth and comfort.
Another highlight is their oden-dashi simmered dumplings. These freshly made dumplings are juicy and a perfect match for chilly evenings. The combination of heat and flavor is simply unforgettable!
A Must-Try Dish: Grilled Mentaiko
Yatai are perfect for casual bites with drinks. At Ultra C, the grilled mentaiko (spicy cod roe) is a local favorite. Its smoky aroma makes it an excellent companion for drinks.
The menu is reasonably priced, and every dish is a hit. Check out the photos below for a glimpse of their offerings!
Why Visit Nakasu-Nakajima?
Nakasu-Nakajima is quieter than other yatai areas, offering a relaxed dining experience without long lines. It’s perfect for enjoying yatai food and conversation at your own pace.
Next to Ultra C is “Tsuna-Tsuna” another must-visit yatai run by one of the youngest owners in the business. Don’t miss it!
