Founded in 1899 in Nagasaki's former Chinatown quarter, Shikairo is the birthplace of champon and sara udon, the noodle dishes its founder invented to feed homesick Chinese students on a budget. The current five-story building sits a minute from Oura Cathedral, with a fifth-floor dining room overlooking Nagasaki harbor, tatami banquet rooms on the fourth floor, and a champon museum on the second floor tracing the dish's history. The kitchen still serves the original champon alongside a broader Chinese menu of stir-fries, dim sum, and seafood dishes.
