Plan description

Make it in 30 minutes! You can make it! Rakujo's "Soba Cutting Experience" is a new soba-making experience. We use an original technique that does not get your hands or clothes dirty, so you can just drop in, cut it quickly, and eat it. Shinshu 100% soba is easily made and boiled immediately, so it smells good! The flavor of the soba is outstandingly delicious! How about a soba cutting contest with your family or friends? We will gently and carefully teach women alone, couples, small children, even if you are weak or inexperienced, with a little trivia. The participation rate of single Japanese men is also very high! It's okay if you have a lot of luggage when walking around Asakusa and Ueno in Tokyo! You can experience it at your leisure in a spacious open studio-style store with a Japanese image under the Kappabashi Tool Street arcade. Experience it for 30 minutes, take your time to eat it, eat some sweets, and take a good rest before going out to do some shopping at Tool Street.

The staff will boil the soba noodles immediately after cutting them, so you can enjoy them in your favorite flavor.

[Winter menu] Wagyu beef sukiyaki soba, with the perfect sweetness of Japanese beef to whet your appetite; Oyakoyonaki soba, with a ramen-like food stall; Vegan tofu soba, free of animal ingredients; Chilled Zaru soba, for enjoying the aroma of 100% tofu (also suitable for vegans); *Normal soba broth is made with bonito flakes from Yaizu, Shizuoka Prefecture, while the broth for vegans is made with kelp from Hidaka, Hokkaido. [Spring, summer, and fall menu] Pork shabu-oroshi soba, with refreshing pork shabu-shabu and grated daikon; Tomato salad soba, with the delicious flavor of tomatoes and sliced radish (also suitable for vegans); Walnut-dressed soba, with sesame added to crushed raw walnuts (also suitable for vegans); Soba broth is always soy sauce-based. Soba broth usually contains wheat, but our vegan soba uses tamari soy sauce, so it does not contain any wheat. As it uses 100% soba, it can be eaten as a completely gluten-free meal.

Get a free drink of your choice!

You can choose your favorite drink, including beer, sake, highball, sparkling wine, cola, tea, carbonated water, and natural water.

Please feel free to enjoy the sweets in the eating space.

We have collected small packets of snacks from Japan's leading confectionery manufacturers. Please feel free to snack on Koala's March, Koebi, Happy Turn, Choco Pie, Pocky, Apollo, and more.

プランの魅力 Rakujo's original smart technique の画像

Rakujo's original smart technique In the past, soba making involved a process called "mizu-mawashi," in which water was added to flour to make the dough, but Rakujo boldly omitted this "patience" step. This resulted in many benefits, such as keeping your fingers and nails clean and your clothes from getting covered in flour.

100% Shinshu buckwheat flour We use buckwheat flour from Nagano Prefecture, which has a strong aroma and flavor. Generally speaking, 100% buckwheat flour is considered difficult to make, but the instructor stirs the water thoroughly so that anyone can easily make sticky, firm buckwheat noodles.

プランの魅力 A Japanese space finished with white wood is very trendy! の画像

A Japanese space finished with white wood is very trendy! The space in which you do your activities should be photogenic, after all. The Rakujo shop is finished in plain wood, creating a Japanese space in the Reiwa era, so you're sure to get good shots from any angle.

プランの魅力 All main ingredients are domestically produced の画像

All main ingredients are domestically produced Many of the restaurants in the city use cost-conscious ingredients imported from overseas, but at Rakujo, we want our guests to be able to fully enjoy Japanese flavors along with a Japanese cultural experience, so we use domestically produced ingredients for all of our main ingredients, based on the concept of local production and consumption.

プランの魅力 The best location: Kappabashi Kitchen Street の画像

The best location: Kappabashi Kitchen Street The charm of Kappabashi, which can be reached on foot from Asakusa, is that it is a tool street. One of the charms of Rakujo is that you can stop by after shopping for cooking utensils, Japanese tableware, and other wonderful items. It's also a good idea to cut soba noodles while you're there to buy a knife! You can also enjoy the experience of making food samples diagonally across the street!

Time schedule

A short talk about soba (5 minutes) The instructor will talk about soba in a little bit, such as its history, how it is made, and a quiz.

Extend ~NOSHI~ (10 minutes) Use your hands and a rolling pin to roll out the soba balls nice and flat.

Kiri (15 minutes) With total concentration, he skillfully manipulates the special soba knife to slice thinner and thinner.

TAGURI (15 mins) The soba noodles you cut yourself are also special. Choose from several flavors and enjoy making your own soba noodles to your heart's content.
