Timeline
ヒラッチョFor the second cup, I ordered a 2-gallon bottle of "Tsuru no Tomo".
It arrived in a large sake bottle.
We were recommended to have a set meal with Hegi Soba and drink it while snacking, so we ordered no rice and a large bowl of Soba.
Hegi-soba is originally served in a larger rectangular bowl (called "hegi") with a hand gesture for each bite (see the second image).
However, you can still taste the flavor of hegi-soba.
Tsuru no Tomo is blind, but this is probably ordinary sake, Kamishaku.
I usually warm up Tsuru no Tomo, so it's been a while since I've had two glasses of cold sake.
It's a classic sake, but it's also clear, delicious, and has a unique silky texture that makes it a great sake👍.
ヒラッチョToday is a weekday holiday.
After seeing the special exhibition at the Tokyo National Museum in Ueno, we walked to the sake shop Sanwa (it was closed) and Okachimachi, and then we went to the Hegi Soba restaurant near Suehirocho station for lunch.
We used to go to this restaurant near the south exit of Okachimachi station, but it had moved.
The color of Niigata is rich in sake and snacks including Hegi Soba.
The first sake was Kenshin Junmai, which was recommended to go with Hegi Soba.
Kenshin has an image of freshness and juiciness in the raw sake, but
However, this is a deep-flavored junmai-shu that you can taste calmly. It is a good sake.
Finished one glass before the Hegi Soba arrived 😅. RecommendedContentsSectionView.title
