12th day in Tokyo

After visiting the Sensoji temple at asakusabashi (lots of little stalls with a shrine at the end of the long line of stalls) we wanted to find soba noodle bar we had read about in some articles.

This soba noodle place is around 160 m south from the main entrance (past 3 intersections) from the temple down the main road on the right. It is a small place called Namiki Yabusoba. We ordered some cold soba noodles which is served on a bamboo plate and dipped into a dashi-soy sauce with toasted seaweed, white onion and wasabi. when the noodles are finished the water from cooking the soba noodles can then be mixed with the left over soy sauce dip and enjoyed like a soup to finish.
