Kogintei / 小巾亭
The entrance / 入口
Last Monday, my wife was in a mood for soba for lunch. So we went to a soba shop called [Kogintei]. There are two branches that I know of in Aomori City. The one located at the West Bypass is very near our home, about a five to ten minute drive. The last time we went, the place was so crowded that we decided to go to another soba shop instead. Today being Monday and all, it was not as crowded and we were seated immediately. My wife and I usually order the same dish when we come here - the tenzaru (tempura zaru soba). I decided to try something different today. There was a special limited item on a separate menu called "Ofukuro Set" which means "Mom's Set". It includes two riceballs, one made with shiso (also known as perilla or beefsteak plant) and not sure what the other flavor was. The soba, you could choose hot or cold. and what sold me - the light and fluffy dashi maki tamagoyaki (seasoned eggroll). The set is only 800yen and only a limited number is available each day. My wife also decided to order something different today and chose the kaisendon (seafood bowl).
前日の月曜日、自分の妻が蕎麦を食べたいと言い出して、うちの近くにあるそば屋「小巾亭」に行きました。前に行ったときは凄い混んでて、別のそば屋に行きました。今日は月曜日だったし、全然混んで泣いくて、店に入ったらすぐ席に案内してくれた。私たちがこの店に来ると大体同じメニューのものを注文する。それが天ざる。今日、限定２０食の目メニューアイテムが目に入り気になった。それが”おふくろセット”。おふくろセットはおにぎり２個、蕎麦（温かいか冷たいの選べる）、と僕が一番美味しそうに見えたのはは大きなだし巻き卵焼き。妻も今日は天ざるじゃなくて、蕎麦付の海鮮丼。
The restaurant is quite spacious. You could request a table or a tatami room table. We chose to sit at a table.
店内は結構広い。テーブルか座敷の席が選べます。私たちはテーブル席をお願いした。
This was my wife's order. Decent volume for the price. It was a little over 1000yen.
妻のランチ。１１００円くらいだったかな。ボリューム満点ですよ。
The kaisendon topped with salmon, maguro, shrimp, salmon roe, scallop, and an egg roll.
海鮮丼に乗ってるのはマグロ、サーモン、イクラ、エビ、帆立と玉子焼き。
This is the "Mom's Set". Maybe a little too much carbs with the rice and soba but all of it was so good!
これが”おふくろセット”。炭水化物ちょっと多いかも知りませんが、とっても美味しかった。
Bon Appetit!
いただきます！
