Exquisite Ako-style 'uchiiri' soba with a generous serving of Ako green onions.

The 'uchiiri' soba served in a tea house that feels like a time slip to the past is highly recommended. I thoroughly enjoyed the soba in a sweet broth with a generous serving of crisp Ako green onions (free of charge). Overlooking the garden, Ako Castle can be seen, and one feels like a townspeople of the Edo period. It's a recommended dining spot where you can relax while feeling the history of Ako.
