NYC Noho | Sobaya for Uni Buckwheat Noodles ๐๐
Finally got to try this long - saved soba noodle shop! โ๏ธ The shop is located between the East Village and Noho, closer to Noho, making it a perfect spot to grab a bite after shopping. ๐๏ธ The interior is super Japanese - style, and the staff are all Japanese, adding to the authentic vibe. ๐ฟ Uni Buckwheat Noodles (seems to be seasonal) ๐ฐ$35 The toppings include yam puree, uni, and caviar. Mixing them together creates a really unique texture. โ๏ธ The noodles are served cold! It was a bit of a surprise since the last time I had soba in Japan, it was warm noodles with cold soup. ๐ Both the fried tofu and duck are ๐ฐ$17. These dishes are in the safe zoneโnot particularly amazing but not bad either. ๐งAlso, I recommend a nearby bubble tea shop, Wanpo Tea Shop, just a short walk away. Itโs right next to Washington Square Park and NYU. Their tapioca milk tea, half - sweet and no ice, is my favorite! ๐ต #JapaneseIzakaya #JapaneseStyle ๐๐
