Restaurant • 1605 Okuma, Kunigami, Kunigami District, Okinawa 905-1412, Japan
Located in the northern part of Okinawa's main island, Kunigami Village, the 'Waa House' is a hidden restaurant where you can taste locally sourced wild boar and pork dishes. Wild boar and pork, a crossbreed of wild boar and pig, is a rare ingredient with low odor and high nutritional value. The owner captures wild boars in the mountains and breeds them in their own pigpen, resulting in the pride of this restaurant.
The main attractions on the menu are the rich and flavorful wild boar and pork soba noodles and wild boar and pork rice bowl. The wild boar and pork soba noodles are a Jiro-inspired style with plenty of vegetables. The wild boar and pork rice bowl is a perfect match of sweet and savory braised wild boar and egg. Both are served piping hot and the deliciousness lasts until the last bite.
The 'Waa House' has been a place beloved by locals for many years as a casual dining spot. It is also popular for late lunches as it operates leisurely until the evening. Inside the restaurant, you will find several baseball player autographs, indicating that the cuisine here is highly regarded from both inside and outside the prefecture.
It is convenient to stop by by car as it is adjacent to the Michi no Eki 'Yui Yui Kunigami' in the heart of Kunigami Village. After your meal, it is recommended to purchase local specialty products at 'Yui Yui Kunigami'. Additionally, it is a good idea to take a stroll in the forest of the world heritage site, 'Yanbaru Kunigami', to experience the unique nature and culture of northern Okinawa.
