Misawaya Negi Soba
restaurant
三澤屋ねぎそば
Thatched-roof soba shop where a whole green onion replaces chopsticks in post-town tradition.
Inside a thatched-roof building in the post town of Ouchi-juku, this restaurant serves takato soba, buckwheat noodles eaten using a long green onion as both chopstick and condiment. You bite the onion between slurps of cold soba in a tradition said to date from the Takato clan. The surrounding post town's 40-plus thatched buildings are stunning in winter under thick snow caps.
