Kamo Seiro (Soba)

It's a Soba again...
This Soba in the picture is called Kamo Seiro.
There is no word of Soba in the name of the dish, but we can expect it is Soba or Udon.
It looks like a bamboo Sushi rolling mat on the right, but this is Seiro. I think Seiro is a cooking tool used for steaming. Here it is just used to be under Soba. Soba is not steamed.

Kamo is a sort of duck meat. You can see some fat floating in the dipping sorce. It had roasted Kamo meat, shiitake mushroom, and mitsuba (herb leaf).

The combination of plain taste of Soba and salty soup was really good!!
Like I wrote some days ago, I prefer Udon to Soba, but this was one of the best foods when I traveled in Tokyo area.
