    Yamagata Obanazawa-shi
    About 10-minute drive from the JR Oishida Station, this soba noodle restaurant is the first soba shop along the Okunohosomichi Obanazawa Soba Highway in Obanazawa City. It is a leading buckwheat producing area within the prefecture. Here, one can enjoy Nihachi soba, a variety made from a special brown buckwheat grain produced locally. This early maturing high-grade Wase grain, which is only slightly polished keeping the hull, is freshly ground, freshly kneaded, and freshly boiled, making a flavorful aromatic pasta. The ita-soba, eaten with home-grown freshly squeezed bitter daikon together with some squid tentacles tempura is highly recommended. Only the Edomae variety of tempura ingredients is use. The juwari-soba is also very popular but is limited to only 20 orders per day, as the buckwheat flour is ground using a hand operated millstone.

    お蕎麦はコシがあり食感も良いし美味しい。お店のなかも広い御座敷でゆっくり食べれます。店員さんの対応も良かったです。天ぷらもボリュームありました。お蕎麦に付いてきた卵焼きが甘くて大変おいしかったです。今度単品で頼みたくなりました。

    Yamagata Kitamurayama-gun Oishidamachi Jinengo 149
    Just 20 minutes by car from the JR Oishida Station, this handmade soba noodle shop is affiliated with the Oishida Soba Highway where soba shop owners have come together to build local pride in their ability to make great soba. Some call the soba of this area hoshi-soba, 'star soba', from the fact that the nihachi type of soba noodles made here are made from the locally produced aromatic, rather course buckwheat flour, and the black specks seen in the noodles look like stars. These soba noodles are traditionally dipped in the local specialty broth, Kiji-jiru, which is made with pheasant meat, grated onions and radish. Although quite strong in flavor, the broth is favored even by women because it doesn't leave an aftertaste. For those soba gourmands, the kaimozu (soba-gaki) is also recommended.

    4月でしたがまわりは銀世界が広がってました。蕎麦はこれまで食べたことがないくらいこしがあり美味しかったです。追加できじ汁を頼みましたがくせも全くなくこれまた美味しかったです。ここ 蕎麦ときじ汁は食べないと人生損してるくらい絶品でした。

Yamagata Areas

around-area-map

Although often overlooked, Yamagata prefecture by no means lacks appeal: the Yamadera temple trail through the mountains, deliciously tender Yonezawa wagyu, and over 100 steaming hot springs, most notably Zao Onsen, await visitors. When winter comes, the snowcapped peaks become dotted with skiers by day and onsen-goers by night, while summer brings the celebration of juicy Yamagata cherries.
