The bright, bold, eccentric interior looks more like a Turkish restaurant than a soba place! You sit on colourful cushions and eat off low tables.
里いものうま煮。 だし巻玉子。
Satoimo no umani(simmered taro) is a bit straight-from-the-fridge cold. Dashi maki tamago(dashi-flavoured eggroll) is Kyoto-style, i.e. not sweet. Freshly made and hot, very good!
みそ田楽（粟・よもぎ・生麩）。
3 types of miso dengaku(broiled miso-topped skewers) – awa(millet), yomogi(mugwort), fu(wheat gluten). The miso is a bit salty but still very good.
追っかけ皿そば。
Cold black soba. Comes with a bowl of raw egg, lots of negi(spring onion), tororo(grated yam), wasabi and tsuyu(dipping sauce). You are supposed to mix the ingredients like the way you mix natto…and dip the soba to the foamy sauce to eat. 5 small plates are for one person. The soba has an acquired taste which I am not so crazy about. Worth trying once though. This soba shop is originally from Kyoto and the madam is an interesting character who gave us a lecture about how the way you sit can affect your ability to attract a man….err….^^;;; One of the two waitresses is from Burma and the other is also Asian – both are very cute and friendly! Two of us shared the food, plus a drink each, about 3000yen per person.
Menu(J) here.

actually the interior reminds me of a Taiwanese restaurant!
Dashi flavor eggroll…seems not that difficult to make? I should try it!
The miso skewers looks yummy! Even you translate them in English I still have to look up the English dictionary haha. So they’re sort of like rice cake?
Never tried making tamagoyaki before but the recipe seems easy enough?
Oh to translate the ingredients of dengaku, I looked up the dictionary too!! ^^;;; Yeah it is like rice cake, a bit softer but still elastic and sticky. I think they are pan-fried here but you can also grill them. I sometimes buy the raw fu from supermarket and grill them in a toaster and eat with sweet beans.
ココはともかくもう摩訶不思議ワールドでしたよね・・
なにしろ、おば(あ)ちゃんが凄かった・・・
内装が台湾っぽいって。どうだろう？！
しかしちゃんとお店で田楽を食べたのはここ初めてかも。
生麩を買って焼いてみたよ～やっぱり油で揚げた方が美味しいよな。
内装もナニも・・・
全体的に奇妙奇天烈な印象しか残っておりませんー
（お店入ったところに着物がかけてあったかな？）
みそ田楽、ここのは味噌がワタシには濃かったです。
次回の○○○大会ではゼヒ味噌田楽を食しましょう！！
おお！是非味噌田楽を作ってくれ！
