Banshu Miki Ikkyuan (Juwari Soba)
A celebrated soba restaurant near Ebisu Station in Miki City. The specialty is 100% buckwheat 'juwari soba' milled on a stone grinding wheel — silky yet firm. The handmade thick futomaki sushi rolls, featuring fluffy sweet egg, are another local highlight. Guests dine while gazing at a beautiful Japanese garden that changes with each season. Yahoo Maps 4.14 (69 reviews), Tabelog 152 reviews. Long-loved by locals as a lunch spot with a queue — early arrival recommended. The winter-only wild boar hot pot (botan nabe) is a hidden gem.
