I visited the soba restaurant "Teuchi Soba Jiyu San" for the first time, located an 8-minute walk from Higashi-Nagasaki Station along Mejiro Street. This place has received a Tabelog Award Bronze.I often pass by in my car and have been meaning to stop by.I entered right when they opened, and there were already three people ahead of me.The interior features three counter seats and three tables for four, all in a calming wood-tone design.Today, I ordered:- Jiyu Course ¥2900-For the cold dish, I switched to Inaka Soba for an additional ¥300.The noodles had a firm texture and were well-defined. They had a pleasant mouthfeel, and the flavor of the soba expanded with each bite. It was delicious even with just salt. Very refined.For the warm dish, I had a small herring soba.This was even lighter in texture than the Inaka Soba. The herring was topped with green onions and yuzu, and the fragrance of the yuzu complemented it perfectly. The herring was tender and just right, with a great flavor that would pair well with sake.I even finished the broth.The soba-yu (soba water) arrived at just the right time.It was smooth and not powdery at all.It was very soothing and comforting.For dessert, I had sweetened water azuki beans.It was just the right amount of sweetness. I usually don’t eat this, but I could finish it easily. It came with bancha tea, which added to the feeling of comfort and satisfaction.It was delicious!It was a great meal! ^ ^
