Naganohara, Gunma, Japan｜水車小屋

When I went to Kusatsu Onsen, I stopped by and ate it. The flavor of the soba is very good, and I wonder if the Kusatsu water brings out the flavor of the Kusatsu soba. The noodles were supple and elastic. 2023.9.2 Repeat visit, delicious soba restaurant, here in Kusatsu Onsen, Gunma Prefecture, "Water Mill" is particular about buckwheat flour, purchases the most delicious buckwheat flour at that time, and offers it by hand. Of course, the soup stock is also homemade and delicious! And the ``sauce cutlet ju'' is special and very delicious. Sauce cutlet bowl and soba set 1,550 yen The cutlet is fatty and juicy, and there is no cabbage under the cutlet, just rice. Of course, they also serve thin soba noodles and soba soup.

I always use it when I go to Manza. The handmade soba and tempura are delicious. In spring, there are also seasonal tempura such as cod buds. In winter, you can enjoy amazake (sweet sake) at the hearth in the middle of the store.

【exterior】 The atmosphere is good in an old-fashioned Japanese house with a water wheel on the eaves. Parking lot is wide. 【Inside the store】 The atmosphere is very nice. A table with a hearth in the center of the dirt floor and a small raised seat. The walls are hung with old winter clothing that is unique to the area, and it really has a good atmosphere of an old folk house. 【meal】 Duck soup soba (tsukemen) 100 percent handmade is the best. Since it is a tsukemen, it was delicious even if it was mixed with soba-yu and mixed with a thick soup stock. In addition, I was able to have amazake free of charge, probably only for the season. In addition, beer had simmered maitake mushrooms and miso oden. (At the time of payment, I received shichimi as a free gift.)
