Located just a 3-minute walk from Uji Station on the Keihan Electric Railway, Tsubameya is a soba restaurant known for its authentic tempura made with fresh, local ingredients from the Yamashiro area. The menu also features cha soba made with Uji matcha, offering a uniquely local flavor. The restaurant uses carefully selected buckwheat flour, primarily sourced from Kyoto Prefecture and blended with flour from neighboring Shiga, to craft its exquisite soba.
Nihachi soba refers to soba noodles made with a mixture of 80% buckwheat flour and 20% wheat flour as a binder. It is easier to make compared to 100% buckwheat soba, and is therefore considered the basic style of soba. The appeal of Nihachi soba lies in its smooth texture and soft feel. You might wonder, "Does the addition of wheat flour affect the flavor or aroma compared to juwari soba?" However, when made with care, the addition of 20% wheat flour does not diminish the rich flavor of the soba.
