Hegisoba Wataya
restaurant
小嶋屋総本店
Signature Niigata soba with seaweed-silked noodles served on hegi trays with karashi mustard.
Hegisoba is Niigata's signature noodle, made with funori seaweed that gives each strand a silky, almost translucent texture unlike soba anywhere else. Wataya serves the noodles draped in elegant bite-sized portions on a rectangular hegi tray, a presentation style unique to the Tokamachi-Ojiya area. Dip into a clean tsuyu broth spiked with karashi mustard, the traditional local condiment.
