Back on the islands! Didnt eat very much this day and one of my favorite Okinawa Charu soba but it was closed... so on the way back to town I spotted this standing Okinawa Asatoya Suba noodle spot. I wonder why its not Soba but Suba.
Counter seat in front of the chef... Not many welcomes or hellos at this spot. It was all business I guess.
They have the awamori hot pepper spice.
So I went for the Soki-Soba 860 yen. Tender Pork!
2 nice pieces of tender pork, 2 slices of white kamaboko fish cakes and negi.
Noodles were boiled for 3 minutes but unusually aldente... a bit on the very heavy side. Usually noodles are not boiled this long. I assume they may be a special blend noodle. Not my style.
I managed to finish the entire plate and drank all the soup but it was very heavy on the Ajinomoto MSG. The flavor lingered in my mouth for a while.
Overall once is enough for this price point, not very friendly staff and standing to eat a bowl of Okinawa Soba wasn't too enjoyable. Just seemed rushed. In Tokyo a bowl of soba or udon noodles at 300 yen a bowl then sure standing is fine but for noodles at this price at least a small table would be nice.
