About this experience
① Experience at a "real soba restaurant" that is not for tourism
This experience is not held in a dedicated experience facility, but in a real hand-made soba restaurant that is actually open.
The soba chefs who make and serve soba noodles on a daily basis give direct instruction, so you can learn about Japanese soba culture "in the real world."It is not simplified for sightseeing, but a major feature of soba is that you can experience the same process and way of thinking as Japanese people usually eat soba.
② Experience the "complete soba making process" from start to finish
While many cooking experiences experience only a part of the process, in this plan,
Mix buckwheat flour → Put dough together → Stretch → Cut
You will experience the whole sequence of:It is a composition that allows you to experience the delicacy of soba making and why craftsmanship is required.
③ The luxury of tasting freshly beaten and boiled
The experience is unique in that you can taste your own soba noodles at the most delicious time.
Freshly made and boiled, soba has a completely different aroma and texture than the soba eaten in restaurants.In order to bring out the original flavor of soba, we offer a variety of Japanese-style dishes such as warm soba sauce and tenkasu.
④ Hokkaido's seasonal tempura and sake close to soba
The tempura served with soba noodles is mainly made from seasonal ingredients from Hokkaido.
It is simple cooking that utilizes the taste of the ingredients, and emphasizes compatibility with soba.
Sake is three types of local sake from Hokkaido carefully selected by the dominant sake master.
By comparing two types of cold sake and one type of warmed sake, you can experience the change in aroma and taste depending on the temperature.
By pairing it with soba noodles and tempura, you can realize that sake is “sake to enjoy with meals.”
⑤ Premium Experience with Small Groups
Because it is a private experience for a small number of people, you can enjoy learning because you are close to the craftsmen.
You can enjoy the experience and the meal in a calm space.
It's not mass acceptance, so we focus on politeness and quality experiences.
⑧ "Memorable Experiences" of Travel in Japan
This experience is more than just cooking classes and meals.
It is the very time to experience authentic soba and sake culture that can only be done in Japan.
"Not only photos and videos, but also ""memories made and tasted with my own hands"" will be a special memory of my trip to Japan."
