Maeno (Uwajima Buckwheat Noodle)
A genuine 100% buckwheat soba restaurant opened in Uwajima by a chef who trained in Osaka. The two soba varieties — finely-ground seiro and coarsely-ground country-style — showcase the nutty fragrance of buckwheat flour in handmade noodles. Uniquely available in Uwajima. A hidden gem in a quiet residential area, 5 minutes from Uwajima Station. Ranked No.1 in Uwajima on Tabelog (3.64).
Reviews say 'I never expected to find such authentic soba in Uwajima' and 'Osaka-trained skill shines in this countryside town.' Some repeat visitors travel from outside the prefecture just for the soba.
