At the end of December, I came to Uji and the destination was closed. It's been quite a journey so far, so I decided to take a break somewhere. Next door is Shubaku, which is famous for its soba noodles, so there was a long line. Waiting in that line was a hassle and I was tired, so I went this way. The bright green soba noodles look delicious, and when you step inside, it's a small but clean and beautiful shop. I ordered matcha soba made with 100% Uji matcha, and my companion had a set with 100% soba and Tempura. The 100% soba is said to be made in a stone mill, so I'm sure it's rich in flavor. The matcha soba noodles don't have any greasy taste at all and go down smoothly. This is nice for someone like me who doesn't like messy food (๓´˘`๓)♡ At first, I had it with just salt, but they only had one type of salt available. But this salt is enough to tell you how good the noodles are. I thought the soup stock was a bit light for such delicious noodles. The flavor, richness, and aroma were kind of weak.I tried to get Tempura halfway through the meal to add some richness to it with the fat, but it was difficult. The batter of my companion's Tempura was a little disappointing, so overall I was very satisfied with the noodles. It's such a waste.
