The secret ingredient is the restaurant owner’s smile: "AOKIYA"
【Postscript of Jindaiji Temple Soba Noodle Tour】“AOKIYA is lost without Jindaiji Temple and the Botanical Garden.Also, it makes no sense that only our restaurant works hard. Joining hands with restaurants belonging to the soba noodle association, I want to stimulate this area,” said the restaurant owner.
At first, I had an impression that the restaurant owner is shy, but as I spoke to him, he showed a pleasant expression, which made me feel that his warm character might be one of the secret ingredients that are the source of delicious meals served by the restaurant Aokiya.
