🥢 What I Ordered
Large Meat Dipping Soba (つけそば 大盛り 600g)
✅ Price: 880 yen (tax included)
✅ Portion: 600g of soba
✅ Style: Cold soba + hot meat broth
For under 1,000 yen, you get a huge bowl of thick soba noodles and a light, soy-based meat soup filled with sliced pork, sesame, and scallions.
In Tokyo, this kind of rustic soba + meat broth combo is rare — this is 100% local Sendai flavor.
🍜 Taste Highlights
| Element | Description |
| Soba noodles | Thick, firm, rustic 窶彿naka soba窶 style. Great chew. |
| Broth | Light but rich soy-based soup with pork & sesame. Not oily. |
| Meat | Thinly sliced pork, soft & slightly sweet. |
| Portion | 600g = serious volume, but surprisingly easy to finish. |
| Price satisfaction | 880 yen for this size? Unbeatable. |
