The atmosphere is casual yet refined, making it an ideal spot to pair your meal with their curated selection of beers while exploring the historic Asakusa district.
π‘ Tips before you go
- Order the Sudachi Soba first to experience how the citrus zest brightens the traditional broth before moving on to heartier sides.
- Ask for a cold beer pairing recommendation from the staff, as they curate their list specifically to cut through the savory dashi flavors.
- Don't skip the Dashi Flavored Rolled Egg as a side dish; it acts as a perfect textural contrast to the slippery noodles.
