Soba<\/em> noodles were my first gastronomic Japanese love from my unforgettable first journey here three years ago. Each time I travel to different destinations in Japan I try to find some local places where I can eat original soba noodles. On my first Japan journey, I really didn\u2019t know much about soba. I just thought it was a kind of brownish Italian pasta in a clear soup. How arrogant and unprepared I was for my first culinary excursion in Japan!<\/p>\n <\/p>\n In restaurant recollection, I still remember my first soba meal, which I tried in a tiny hidden place in Jiyugaoka, Tokyo. At that time a friend of mine ordered a nishin soba. I was bewildered and puzzled, as the sweet and tender herring atop a tangle of soba in a hot tsuyu broth was the perfect compliment to a cold January day. At that time I truly fell in love with soba, and I keep my unconditional love to this day.<\/p>\n
