Gourmet garden

Founded in 1954, this is the original yakiniku cold noodle restaurant of Morioka cold noodles. Morioka Naengmyeon was created by the late predecessor, Teruto Aoki, who mixed the flavor of Pyongyang Naengmyeon, which was light and not spicy, with the spicy cold noodles from his hometown, Hamheung. In order to preserve this traditional taste, the preparation process is repeated exactly as it was back in the day. The rich soup is made from 80% beef bones and 20% chicken bones, and has a unique noodles and exquisite taste.

Wanko Soba (Morioka)

"Wanko" is a dialect that refers to a wooden bowl. In areas such as Morioka and Hanamaki, there was a custom of serving soba to entertain guests. The only way to serve freshly boiled food to a large number of customers at once is to serve it in small portions in bowls. This etiquette is said to be the origin of Wanko Soba. The reason why you are forced to refill your plate as soon as you finish eating is a courtesy of hospitality towards guests, which is called ``otebachi.'' ``Wanko Soba'' is a playful dish where the waitstaff throws soba noodles in one after another while shouting ``Hai, Dokkoi. The greeting "Gochisousama" is not understood there. The food is served until the bowl is covered.
