天婦羅蕎麥麵($82), well I do have to say abit about the amount of soba is actually too little even for someone like me, I usually eat a salad for lunch and I am fine until 6pm, but I felt hungry around 11pm that night after eating this. At home a single bundle of soba would have almost doubled the quantity I got there. But on the plus side, the tempura was great as shown in my photos below:

You can see how thin the crust and the tempura was freshly fried so you could still feel the heat. The tempura itself doesn't drip oil and doesn't have a strong taste of oil like local fried shop snacks.

The set comes with tea and you can ask waitress to refill for you.

The japanese sauce they claim to use has over a 150 years of history/ experience.

Did I get a stomach-ache?
No, the chopsticks were ok-clean, and we usually wipe them ourselves before using.

Would I recommend this to others?
Yes for the tempura, no for the amount of soba. I might try it again in the future, but just for tea-time and not a proper meal like lunch or dinner.

You should avoid peak hours if you can't stand in queue for half an hour. I think the restaurant could only accommodate 30 or so customers at a time. So be quick!
