Finally popped by Reiwa Soba and boy am I impressed by this humble soba stall nested within a quiet coffeeshop in Jalan Besar area.

The stall uses 100% buckwheat flour soba that is freshly made each day. The Reiwa Pork Soba ($12) consists of cold buckwheat soba and thinly sliced Spanish white pork, served with a dipping sauce made from chicken, fish and seaweed broth and topped with chilli oil, leeks and crispy rice puffs. The dipping sauce is definitely a lot more flavourful than the usual shoyu-based dipping sauce, and surprisingly the chilli oil adds another layer of fragrance to the dipping sauce without turning up the heat. The delicious sauce clings onto the cold soba and soft pork slices and complements them perfectly.
