Soba Noodle-Making with Tempura in a Sapporo Restaurant

You may know Sapporo for the beer that carries the city's name or as the birthplace of miso ramen. But the gastronomical culture of Sapporo runs much deeper. One way to experience this culture firsthand is to step inside an actual shop and learn to make the local dishes yourself from experienced chefs. In this private soba-making experience, you'll enter a restaurant in Sapporo to learn how to make a delicious bowl of soba using local Hokkaido buckwheat. You'll also receive tempura with a crunch that pairs perfectly with the smooth flavors of your handmade soba. When you arrive, the restaurant's chefs will greet you before teaching you the ins and outs of making soba. Don't be worried about remembering everything immediately because they'll be alongside you every step of the way. Feel the soft buckwheat dough in your hands as you mold and knead it before rolling it out to cut. Use real soba-making equipment to slice your soba dough into thin noodles before they are boiled to perfection. After you've finished all the hard work, it's time to relax and refuel with your bowl of handmade noodles. Tempura is commonly served alongside soba, so the shop will prepare a plate of delicious tempura using seasonal vegetables and other ingredients for you to enjoy. Taste the fresh flavors of Hokkaido as you dive into your meal of soba and tempura.
