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.

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.

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