2023-06-21-08:50 Seeking "Geso Tempura Soba" for breakfast in Kodenmacho. When I arrived at "Tasoba," there was a long line. While waiting, I checked the ticket machine and couldn't find "Geso Tempura Soba" ( ;∀;). I gave up and headed to "Shimizuya." After returning home and checking, I realized that you can get "Geso Tempura Soba" by ordering "Tempura Soba" and saying "Geso" at the counter. I completely forgot about it. Nevertheless, I still like "Shimizuya" ♪ When I approached the ticket machine, I found it. "Geso Tempura Soba"! However, the price has gone up, from @530 to @590. Oh well, nothing we can do. Now, let's go for some delicious broth! It's slightly sweet and perfect for those who love a comforting dashi. And the soba here is also delicious. There's plenty of spicy Japanese pepper, which is great. What sets this "Geso Tempura Soba" apart from others is that the "Geso" is huge! About 2cm in diameter, and there were about 6 of them. The chewy texture is fantastic. However, it's a bit disappointing that it doesn't have the same "umami" as Rokumon Soba. This is not your typical standing-eating soba place. Surprisingly, I finished it all.
