Tabiiro’s picks: signature dishes

"Yama Wasabi Soba" with a clean, refreshing heat that spreads across the palate

"Yamawasabi Soba" with Horseradish Grated to Order

Made with buckwheat flour milled together with the husks at extremely low speed in a stone mill from whole buckwheat grown in Kamikawa, Hokkaido, surrounded by the Daisetsuzan mountain range, the soba has a robust flavor. Each morning, the owner freshly makes, cuts, and boils the smooth handmade soba. The signature "Yama Wasabi Soba" is generously topped with Hokkaido-grown mountain wasabi grated to order and is well received by regular customers for its distinctive flavor, while also offering visitors a taste characteristic of Hokkaido. The sharp, refreshing heat of the mountain wasabi pairs especially well with the soba, whose sweetness becomes more pronounced with each bite.

Interior

A welcoming atmosphere suited to solo diners

The welcoming interior provides a comfortable setting even for first-time visitors, with counter seating, tables, and raised tatami seating suitable for solo diners, families, and groups. One corner of the restaurant is dedicated to the Takagi sisters, gold medalists in speed skating at the Winter Olympics, and has become a fan pilgrimage destination attracting visitors from across Japan.

From the Tabiiro Editorial Team

This well-regarded local restaurant is also known for a close family friendship with the Takagi sisters, gold medalists in speed skating at the Winter Olympics. In addition to sushi prepared by skilled chefs and Butadon (pork bowl), a local specialty of the Tokachi region, the owner's smooth, easy-to-eat handmade soba is also well received. At lunchtime, a set combining a mini rice bowl with kake soba or udon is a favorite choice.
