New dining establishments specializing in udon have opened in the Osaka and Fukuoka regions. In Moriguchi, Osaka, Oudon Cafe Yokikana launched near Taishibashi-imaichi Station, offering dishes featuring Hokkaido kombu broth and octopus-shaped sausages. In Fukuoka City, Hibi no Udon San3 opened near Yakuin Station, focusing on fresh Sanuki udon.

Following these openings, the Sukesan Udon chain announced a limited-edition Napolitan Udon menu. Starting October 22, the chain will offer three varieties—standard, cheese, and chicken cutlet topped—at 25 locations across the Kanto and Kansai regions.
