A soba shop in a row of old houses on Kuramaguchi-dori. Pass through the noren curtain and the earth-floor entrance, and the nostalgic sight of tatami seating and tables on wooden floors puts you immediately at ease. ‘Zaru soba’, soba on a bamboo draining basket with dipping sauce, is made from 100% buckwheat flour for aroma and quality finish. A sharkskin grater and stick of wasabi are provided, so you can start grating your wasabi while you wait for your soba. Enjoy soba dishes to your heart’s content, including buckwheat tofu and buckwheat red-bean soup.
