There's a little more this year. It's time to look back on the year.
I like the busy preparations for the New Year, and I like to take a break while watching the sunset sky of New Year's Eve.
And the pleasure of New Year's Eve is "New Year's Eve Soba".
In the first place, I love soba, and if I don't eat it for a while, I miss it as sexy, but New Year's Eve soba can give another real pleasure. It has a unique taste because there is no feeling of chopping the reflection of the year gradually on the chest and the feeling of excitement waiting while waiting for the new year approaches.
Of course, it is good to enjoy soba at each home, but it is also good to get a certain taste at your favorite shop.
There are many famous soba shops in Chuo-ku, but this time, let's visit the soba shops around Nihonbashi Muromachi 4-chome to Nihonbashi Honishicho 4-chome.
There is a street on the way from Shin-Nihonbashi Station to Kanda Station.
There are a lot of soba shops and ramen shops, and it is a fun area for noodle lovers. There are many long-established stores, chain stores, and unique stores with many fans.
One of the most typical examples is the Muromachi Sandbox. It is a long-established store that is popular among sandbox-style shops. I also visit occasionally when I walk around Nihonbashi. The inside of the store is quite large, but it is always crowded with many customers.
Let's take a look at the history of soba in Edo just in case. Originally, it seems that soba was eaten like "soba scratching", but it is said that "soba cutting" began to spread around the end of the Sengoku period. It is said that soba shops began to be built in the town of Edo around the end of the 17th century. And it seems that it spread throughout the town of Edo in no time.
By the way, it is said that the name "sandbox" originated from the fact that there was a delicious soba shop near the place where construction sand was originally placed at the time of the construction of Osaka Castle, and it came to be called "sandbox". I am. Later, "Sandbox" advanced to Edo, and "Yabu Soba" was born from that trend. In addition, there is a flow of soba shops originating in Shinshu, which means that this is connected to the current "Sarashina" system.
By the way, it is strange that Osaka, the birthplace of the sandbox, currently has no sandbox headwater, and there are quite a few shops called Sarashina.
Soba often appears in Edo Rakugo. I remember what the deceased predecessor, Bunji Katsura, was saying before his birth. "Edo kid tee doesn't mean eating soba. Soba enjoys the throat, so it's true that "Taguru" is true. It was said that it was a wildfire to use toothpicks after eating at a soba shop. "
Well, I just want to eat it as I like, but I'm looking forward to seeing the delicious "New Year's Soba" even though it doesn't suit me.
We hope everyone will enjoy the New Year's Eve food event. And please have a good year. I look forward to seeing you again next year.
