I guess you could say that my idea of comfort food goes both way - extremely soupy or deep fried. Really couldn't resist it when I saw this Tempura Udon ($16, there is a soba option too!) on the menu cause it has 2 things I love - soup and fried food!!!
I liked that the soba base was only not overly salty and had a nice soyu fragrance. Coupled with the thick chewy soba noodle, it was a really comforting eat. The tempura didn't go wrong. It wasn't overly oily and remained nicely crisp towards the end on the meal. My only gripe - they served a slice of carrot instead of a sweet potato.
