Hara
中原町55善栄ビル1F
A good selection of small dishes is available here in addition to soba. go straight out the north exit of jr izumo station and look for the purple banner on the right just past the toyoko inn. good food with an interesting crowd of local patrons from construction workers to groups of young women out for a party.
Izumo soba åºé²ãã°, the local variety of noodles, is the region's most famous food, but the beef Shimane wagyu is good as well.
Shimane Winery
(http://www.shimane-winery...). try yakiniku barbecue. also offers free tours and wine tastings, though connoisseurs will likely be unimpressed.
