Kikugawa, Shizuoka, Japan｜Daidai

This is my first shop. I had zaru soba and tempura. I felt a momentary cooling sensation through the flavor of the soba and down my throat. The tempura platter, which included figs, ginkgo nuts, conger eel, sweet sea bream, shrimp, and eggplant, was seasonal and very delicious.

I ordered zaru soba and walnut soba. The buckwheat noodles are a little thick and have a good flavor and are very delicious. Since we are the type to eat a lot, it was a large serving + 400 yen, but it was still just the right amount. Wasabi seems to be grated, and the smell that passes through the nose is irresistible. Walnut soba is sweet and a little sour, so the soba goes on. There are 4 tatami mats and 5 seats at the counter. It seems that the dolls made by the owner's mother are displayed and sold in the store. The shop had a homely and warm atmosphere.

August 2022...The price of soba noodles has not changed, but the prices of 5 tempura items have increased slightly. ...It's delicious, so I don't have any problems with it lol ------- After all, this restaurant is...tempura! is not it! ! This time it's really delicious! ------- Isn't the old lady's attitude that night so good? What a waste of delicious food. ------- The sign for the entrance parking lot was gone, so I guess it's closed! ? I was worried, but... it was business as usual. The tempura was delicious today too! ! However, if you add tempura, the price will be quite high (bitter smile). ------- If you call before the store opens, you will not be able to make a reservation for lunch! They said. It seems that you can only reserve the evening course. When I got there before the store opened, there were about 3 groups in line. By the time we finished eating and left, it was around lunchtime and the place was already full. As expected, the tempura here is delicious! All of the tempura are delicious, but I think the angel shrimp head is the most delicious! ? lol. The soba noodles were normal. ------- It is located in a residential area of ​​Kikugawa, so a navigation system is essential. It's a shop with a nice atmosphere, and the interior also has a nice feel. It's a shame that the tamagoyaki is pre-made and cold...I'd rather have it freshly baked (bitter smile). It has a sweet taste and is delicious, so I wanted to try it freshly made. Soba tofu has a rich soba aroma and is delicious! It has a texture similar to sesame tofu. The soba noodles were delicious, but there was nothing particularly special about them. The soup stock was also decent. The tempura at this restaurant is amazing and delicious! I was surprised a little! ! At least, I didn't think the tempura was on the level that you would find at a soba restaurant in the countryside. It must be at the level of an authentic tempura specialty restaurant...amazing! ! -------
