Yufuin is a charming onsen town located in Oita Prefecture, Kyushu. It is well known for its chilled and relaxed atmosphere, scenic mountain views, and trendy cafes and of course, unique onsen ryokan. It is pretty easy to explore Yufuin by foot as the main walking street starts right in front of the train station. There are many small artisanal shops, cafes and dessert stands, craft boutiques, museums lined along the main walking streets.

To come here, you may board the retro looking forest-theme sightseeing train – Yufuin no Mori ! The journey takes about 2hours and 15mins to Yufuin. This train is covered by the JR Kyushu North Kyushu Pass and JR Kyushu All Pass. Reservation is a must to board onto this train (there are no non-reserved seats available on this train).

During the day, they offer stir fry plated rice like gu lou yok rice or hokkien mee. Their hokkien mee is pretty decent. At night starting from 6pm onwards, they offer simple siu chao dishes (小炒) such as steamed fish, gu lou yok, mui choy kao yuk, stir fried vegetable, steamed egg, and tofu. Dishes are priced very affordably and they offer set dinner (with 3 dishes) at just RM 53 that comes with steamed fish, a meat dish (or egg or tofu) and a vegetable!

At just RM 53!!! You read it! Portion is pretty decent too, good enough to feed 3 to 4 people. We had the Steamed Tilapia fish with Assam, Stir-fried vegetables and the gu lou yok (sweet and sour pork). Sweet and Sour Pork was good in flavour, crispy skin and coated with the sweet and sour sauce. Steamed Tilapia fish with Assam was nicely done too, dosed with quite a bit of condiments like lady’s fingers, tomato wedges and onion slices. Its gravy was indeed very good to go with the bowl of fluffy white rice.
