Handmade Soba at Akatsukian

Freshly made soba.

Soba is handmade daily at Akatsukian noodle shop in Ginza Mitsukoshi.

A Tokyo travel tip is to check out the restaurants in department stores. These are typically located on the top floors of the department store. Akatsukian is a famous soba shop in Hakone, an onsen hot springs resort town south of Tokyo. Akatsukian has a branch in Ginza Mitsukoshi.

Charcoal black soba.

There are seasonal soba buckwheat noodles and today’s offering was sumi or charcoal. The noodles were black – and delicious. This is the yuba, soy milk skin, soba.

English menus at many department store restaurants.

Another benefit of dining at department store restaurants is that there is often an English menu. 🙂
