On a summery, sunny Saturday, I received an invitation from someone who got a platinum ticket for Iida Shoten, so I took the Tokaido Line to Yugawara. It's great that the restaurant is within walking distance from the station.I chose the summer limited "Chilled Tantanmen with Soy Milk from Yugawara Juuni-an." This is a collaboration between Juuni-an, known for its exquisite tofu, and Iida Shoten, both local favorites. My expectations were high.When it arrived, I was surprised to see just the soy milk sauce and chili oil—such a simple presentation! But as I dug in, I discovered a wealth of ingredients like minced meat and tomatoes. The flavor was subtly sweet and tangy, perfectly balancing the rich soy milk. It was delicious! Although it was quite filling, the soy milk kept it light, so I didn’t feel heavy afterward.Denny's also offered a soy milk chilled tantanmen supervised by Iida Shoten, but Iida himself was determined not to be outdone, which made this dish even more interesting.I paid with PayPay, and I received a 20% points cashback, which was a nice bonus. I hope to be lucky enough to receive another invitation like this soon!
