I was with Mjqueen7e who was just recovering from food poisoning and had not eaten for two days so it was a delicate choice to choose what to eat.Usually the locals will eat congee, but congee is not as healthy as it seems because it contains a lot more oils than you think.It certainly does not work for me because it makes me more sick, so usually I go for breads or noodles!Again, Chinese noodles contains a film of oil on top of the broth.Finally, came here for soba noodles.I chose the Chilled S
Usually the locals will eat congee, but congee is not as healthy as it seems because it contains a lot more oils than you think.
It certainly does not work for me because it makes me more sick, so usually I go for breads or noodles!
Again, Chinese noodles contains a film of oil on top of the broth.
Finally, came here for soba noodles.
I chose the Chilled Shiretoko Zarusoba with sesame and black garlic oil sauce for the THIRD TIME because this was my third time dining here.
As for my foodie friend, I recommended the plain soba which is just soba in soup. No meat, No oil and it was hot too!

Chilled Shiretoko Zarusoba with sesame and black garlic oil sauce:
Compared to my previous visit, there was a perfect balance of black garlic and sesame sauce.
On my second visit, there was too much sesame sauce and not enough black garlic sauce.See photos on second visit:

If you see the photos on my first visit, there was practically no sauce at all!

Anyway, with the appropriate amount of sauce, the noodles were really refreshing balanced by the lovely black garlic aroma.
I loved the crunch from the buckwheat seeds and I wish there were more of them.★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Plain soba:
Luckily the soup was quite salty, because after having had food poisoning everything tastes tasteless and there is a craving for salty foods to replace the lost salts and fluids.As I experienced food poisoning recently I was downing MSG laden soups when I was sick which is something I do not usually do.

I would just like to Thank my Mjqueen7e who had food poisoning for treating me to soba and still dining out with me while she was sick.

I do not normally go back to restaurants twice unless there are new dishes or the items are really good.
So I suppose the soba here is good!
