Best Japanese style parfait EVER!!! I ordered the duck soba even though the curry soba looked and smelled delicious (as I cannot eat pork and beef meat). It was amazing!!! But the highlight for me was definitely the parfait I got for the dessert. It had matcha ice cream, which I HATE! But this was different, I loved it, so much so that I went in the very next day just to eat that parfait again. I highly recommend you try the parfait, if not anything else. In my ten years of living in Japan, I have eaten countless parfaits. This is the best one thus far. The flavor and the textures all just... PERFECT! On a side note, there was an old lady who served me my parfait and she was the cutest server I have ever had. When we told her we weren't from Japan, her eyes lit up and we had a sweet little chat while eating our dessert. If I were to nitpick, the table seatings are a bit limited and if you are not lucky enough to grab them you might have to sit on the floor on the thin 'zabutons'. It's completely a personal choice though. If you enjoy it, it is great. If you're like me, sitting on the floor is a painful experience for my back and knees. Overall, it was an amazing experience, the food was great, the dessert and the server even better!

I had curry soba. It was creamy and rich and extremely delicious. There's also volume. The staff at the store were also polite.

It is very tasty! 😆 It is located along the national highway that ran a little from Doai in Kamisu City to Kamisu City. I received Mori Soba. The noodles are gray opaque thin noodles that are machine beaten, moderately moist and well chilled, and have a firm texture. It also has a strong soba flavor. Contrary to what I thought was a clear and refreshing soup, the soup stock was well taken, and it was a very delicious soup. I ate it all. Hand-beating is also delicious, but machine-beating also maintains homogeneity, so you can enjoy the taste with a sense of security. I think the noodles are also very carefully selected. Like this soup, I thought it would be mild, but the dashi soup is clearly asserted, and the direction of the deliciousness of soba is different. Also, you can enjoy the soba noodles in a unique way. The portions are large and very satisfying. The service feels like home. You can enjoy various types of soba, and this area is really the best place for soba lovers!
