Modern innovation of abura soba

The Avant-Garde of Abura Soba

Ganso Aburado represents the modern evolution of abura soba, founded in 2012 with a revolutionary mission: to reinvent brothless noodles for the contemporary era. A pioneer of nutritional innovation, this chain combines culinary tradition with health consciousness.

With its unique hybrid noodles (a blend of wheat and pasta flour), its modern interior design and its concept of free healthy tea, Ganso Aburado attracts an urban clientele concerned with well-being and culinary innovation.

Nutritional Revolution

2012: Wellness Vision

Ganso Aburado was born from a simple observation: why couldn't abura soba be even healthier? The founders developed a revolutionary concept combining culinary pleasure and nutritional well-being.

Hybrid Noodle Revolution

The flagship innovation: unique noodles blending traditional wheat flour and durum pasta flour. This combination creates an unprecedented texture, firmer and more nutritious, with a subtle taste reminiscent of the best Italian pasta.

Integrated Health Ecosystem

Beyond noodles, Ganso Aburado developed a complete wellness ecosystem: free black oolong tea (rich in antioxidants), soothing zen design, and optimized portions for nutritional balance.
