Fine Dining and Spirits in Nikko
During your visit to Nikko there will be time and space to refresh your senses and to experience unique marvelous dining and spirits. Nikko is famous for two particular dishes, “yuba” and “soba”. Yuba is the fine layer of tofu that is dried and re-hydrated, and then combined with many different foods such as noodles and fruits. Soba, or buckwheat noodles, are often found in Nikko and handmade. With its own dipping sauce, there is a wide range of flavor to engage your palate.
For enthusiasts of local spirits, Nikko has highly sought-after sake due to its access to pristine natural water, as well its deep multi-generational traditions and practices that result in perfection in your cup. Wonderfully pair-able with yuba, local wagyu beef, and local tamarizuki pickles, Nikko sake is a delight to the senses.
