Qiáo Mài Gōng Fáng せき

When I came to eat last year, I felt the authentic taste, but when I tried it again this time, I didn't feel the same as before. Was it just a coincidence, that the aroma was weak, the noodles were watery, or the soup was bland? Even after finishing the meal, the buckwheat tea did not come out, and seeing that the restaurant was full with customers coming in one after another, I felt sorry for occupying a table alone and left without waiting for the buckwheat tea. It's a shame, but I don't think I'll be returning. Previously, I wrote that this is real soba. The aroma, cooking, and taste of the soup are well balanced. The buckwheat tea was also delicious and on the rich side. I want to go eat there again.

Delicious! Delicious! Delicious! I finally found it! This is the true soba noodles! I am amazed by the fragrance! The firm and sharp texture allows you to fully enjoy the soba noodles! My recommendation is definitely the zarusoba with grated daikon radish! From the vast private plantation soba fields of Mt. Tsukiyama, every step of the process is carefully controlled by one owner, showing their dedication and passion for excellence! Many people are moved for the first time by how delicious soba can be! Honestly, I was one of those people too! And finally, the "surprise" soba hot water at the end! This is not just leftover broth, but specially made soba hot water! It's thick and delicious, it's amazing! The panoramic view of Mt. Chokai from the full-length windows, with a vast countryside stretching out below! It's a luxurious experience to enjoy soba noodles in such a beautiful setting! This is the best place to eat soba noodles! No doubt about it! But honestly, I hope it doesn't become too popular and lose its charm! The restaurant is closed on Wednesdays and open from 11:00.

The soba noodles were delicious and I want to go back, but a round trip of 1000km is too far.

蕎麦がとても美味しい！つゆは良い意味でクセがなく優しい味です。細めの蕎麦に濃いめのそば湯、お新香、ネギ、ワサビ、全て好みです。 ただひとつ、お店のおかみさんがクセのある方なので…特に小さい子ども連れの時は注意です。 あと大きいお金で払うと嫌がられます。

北余部駅に程近い、住宅街の外れにお店はありました。 ログハウス風の店構え、薪ストーブ、一枚板のテーブル、そしてクラシックのBGM(この日はモーツァルトの40番ほか など、雰囲気は最高です。 テーブル席2、小上がり席2と、小規模な店内ですが、場所が分かりにくいからでしょうか、12時過ぎにも関わらず空いていました。 メニューは板そば、ざるそば、そしておろしそば。あとは、トッピングのげそ天ととろろ、飲み物のみといたってシンプル。今回はせっかくの庄内そばなので、板そばを注文しました。 そばは十割なのに喉ごしのよさは 抜群。ご主人のこだわりで自家栽培の上、当日石臼引き、注文を受けてから切り、直ぐ様茹であげるという「三たて」です。時期が時期なので蕎麦の風味は弱いものの、食べ御妙のある一枚でした。 つゆはどちらかというとあまり主張しない味付けなので、そばの風味を楽しみたい方にはマッチしていると思います。 他のお客さんは地元の知り合いなのか、接客のおかみさんと談笑していましたが、アクセントが優しかったからなのか、不快感は全くありませんでした。支払いのときに、「また来て下さい」と初めて笑顔でおっしゃったご主人が、とても好感が持てました。
