restaurant based in Nihonbashi, known as the birthplace of ten-zaru and ten-mori.To serve tempura soba deliciously even in summer, they offer it with cold soba dipped in a warm broth containing tempura.The tempura is kakiage made with shrimp and scallops.You can choose between two types of soba: \u201cMori,\u201d made with 80% buckwheat flour and 20% wheat flour for a rich buckwheat flavor, and \u201cZaru,\u201d made from refined Sarashina flour bound with egg, featuring a smooth texture and gentle sweetness.The soba dipping sauce is a dry-style blend made with broth from high-quality bonito flakes and rich soy sauce base.Their tamagoyaki (rolled omelet) made with soba sauce has a gentle sweetness and is well-loved as a perfect match for sake.The first floor has table seating, while the second floor offers sunken tatami seating, available for gatherings and parties.In 1964 (Showa 39), a branch was opened in Akasaka, where ten-zaru and ten-mori can also be enjoyed.<br\/><\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\">History<\/h3>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\"
