Ikkaku Marugame Honten is the original location of the famous Ikkaku restaurant chain, known for its signature bone-in chicken. Located just a short walk from JR Marugame Station, this restaurant offers both "Oya-dori" (mature chicken) and "Hina-dori" (young chicken), each with distinct textures and flavors. The mature chicken is known for its chewy texture and rich flavor, while the young chicken is tender and juicy. Enjoy the flavorful, spicy chicken with a side of cabbage and rice balls, perfect for soaking up the delicious drippings. Be prepared for a lively atmosphere and potentially a wait, especially during peak hours. Consider visiting outside of peak hours to avoid long lines. Takeout is also available if you're in a hurry.
