Morioka's three noodles in Morioka

Morioka is known for three noodles: wanko soba, mouthfuls of soba poured into your bowl one after another; reimen, a firm cold noodle in beef broth, first served here in 1954; and jajamen, flat noodles with meat miso, finished with chitantan, an egg soup made in the dish you ate from. 3 places, chosen by Rin and checked by the editors.
