The soba experience
It was my first soba in Japan and I think I like it :). Soba is a type of noodle made from buckwheat flour served either cold or hot (mine was hot). Before eating dip it in a kind of broth, I think fish made. And then you politely slurp it :)
I received some additional ingredients to put in the broth, e.g. sea weed, wasabi and chopped Japanese onion. Experiment before you find your taste! :)
At the end I received some after-​soba-​cooking water, which is customary to mix with the broth leftover and drink (at least my Japanese friend told me to do it). Also, only because of her I was able to found this place. If you walk the streets full of wanders it’s really easy to miss. Also she helped me pick the soba I had because the menu is in Japanese only.
So, I like soba! It’s easy to eat (even with chopsticks), it’s healthy and will make you live over 100 years.
