Tankei (端渓)| Soba Restaurant | Windsor Hotel TOYA

Would you like to enjoy both delicious soba and beautiful scenery at the same time? If so, I recommend Tankei (端渓) in the Windsor Hotel TOYA (ウインザーホテル洞爺).

Let's go to the 11th floor!

Go through the fancy but peaceful corridor,

you will find "Tankei (端渓)" on your right. Let's enter it!

I love this atmosphere, especially the large bamboo decorations on the table!!!

The beautiful scenery is one of the attractions here! How picturesque Lake Toya seen from the restaurant is!

I love it!

Would you like to drink sake? Don't worry about it! They have several kinds of sake like this↓

Actually sake really goes well with soba!!

They also serve several side dishes such as king crab tempura,

roasted duck and so on......

Today I ordered "cold soba noodles with horseradish and grated radish (蝦夷山わさびおろしそば)".

The wasabi (Japanese horseradish) is not normal one, but mountain one, which has distinctive aroma, and very tasty!!

The soba is thinner than typical ones. We really enjoyed the feeling of soba going down our throat!

Yummy x 2 in my tummy!

This is "Tenseiro soba (天せいろそば)" or a cold soba and tempra set.

Only seasonable vegetables and seafood are used for the tempra! Perfect!

How shiny the soba is!!!

We really enjoyed lunch today!!
