I went to soba restaurant named Kurumian (くるみ庵) near my house after years absence. Ah, they’re not near my house. About 20 minutes walk one way :p But within walking distance. Kurumian’s specialty is their Shinsyu-style soba.

Contrary to busy shopping street, this street is not many restaurants and shops. So few people is always seen along the street. But this Kurumian is always packed whenever I go to there. This time, too.

I had wanted to eat much that day, so I ordered Kisu tempura bowl and soba set. Both tempura bowl and soba 🙂 Kisu is a kind of fish and not big. Also the restaurant is a small and have cozy atmosphere.

My lunch was served after a while. Left is tempra bowl and right is soba.
Soba can be chosen from wide soba and narrow soba, and from hot and cold. I chose cold narrow soba.

Soba wasn’t large. So, I managed to eat them up. Though this soba didn’t have much flavor of soba, it tasted good going down. Ah, I should have eaten just soba. Large soba !
