shimbashi soba @ paragon, orchard

one of my colleagues strongly recommended this handmade soba shop at paragon. i googled it and read many good reviews about the soba (esp cold soba). so, happily me and my colleagues went there one evening and gave it a try. i wonder whats so special bout the noodles!

my dinner set (cold soba, karaage, tempura, agedashi tofu, watermelon) = S$19.80++
being a non-sashimi lover, haha i order the set dinner without any raw fish swimming in the bento. oh well, perhaps i am not a soba person, i couldnt taste how special and how nice the soba texture was (sad right?!) the noodles are very Q, springy but... the portion is very small (japanese eat very little i guess, they dont add noodles like how we added our wanton mee, lol). looking at the long long queue, the people really know how to appreciate the soba? i doubt so. lol.
my colleague's set dinner @ S$25.90++
with this price in RM, i believe i will enjoy more at Njyumaru @ JB Permas, i still like their jap food. oh well, a good dining experience though, by looking at the japanese chef making soba. hehe.
