“A buckwheat course with impressive noodles and soba, though a few dishes fall short”

  • Buckwheat Noodles (perilla oil and shio-kombu)BestMichelin-level simplicity with top-notch execution
  • Buckwheat Tea Steamed EggPlump shrimp, a big portion, and delicious
  • Abalone with Buckwheat MugiThe butter-cream flavor drowns out the buckwheat character

Liked

  • Unique lineup made entirely with buckwheat
  • Generous portion of steamed egg
  • Michelin-listed restaurant

Downsides

  • The abalone dish has a strong butter-cream flavor
  • The tsuyu (dipping sauce) is a bit rich
  • Hard to think of the right occasion to visit
Price
Course ₩55,000
Would return
No clear answer on who to bring or when to come back
Tips
  • For the soba, dip it in salt and wasabi first
  • Salt and wasabi are better than the tsuyu
