bro...i have never try japanese food in San Francisco ( never been to San Fransico yet ) . Fuji franchise in thai taste like shit , no different from those cheap japanese restaurants in singapore . bro , do not throw away the water use to boil the soba ....we call it sobayu . the cooking broth that is used for boiling soba noodles makes a satisfying and heathy broth called Sobayu. it is usually served half way during the meal when you order cold soba at a soba noodle shop. the standard way to drink it is to pour the broth directly into the cup containing the dipping sauce. usually, by the time they serve the broth, you would have used half the dipping sauce for the soba. the sobayu dilutes the dipping broth and makes a nice, not too salty broth. but I like to drink sobayu straight. It has a very clean taste and nice fragrance....and very good for your body too .

if you have time, visit walnut creek which is 40 miles over the bay east of sf. when japanese visitors come over for business, i'll bring them to a sushi restaurant in wc. custom made rolls and over 100 designer maki. my favorite is scallops with crab meat inside rolled with soy sheet draped with maguro and dripped with ponzu sauce. all jap visitors so far are impressed.

San Francisco Jap restaurants all use Jap chefs only as far as I know. The sobayu I've never tried before. A bit funny to drink leftover noodle boiling soup. When boiling it, the steam already smells between oaty and wheaty.

I don't eat Maggi since long ago. For cheap instant noodles, I go for Thai Mama from Golden Mile. Small packs go for light meals but don't take too much too often, delicious but not very good for health. For Japanese instant noodles, I go for Nissin or Myojyo. Not the NTUC supermarket Nissin or Myojyo, the real imported stuff at Isetan that costs about four times more than common instant noodles even if the same Japanese branded.

no one waste the sobayu in a real japanese soba shop ...another way to drink the sobayu is to add the remaining soba sauce to the sobayu and drink it like a soup ...


my fav maggi mee is yakisoba from " UFO " ...and curry udon from Nissin . those japanese item in isetan supermarket are overpriced ..

Overpriced I know but what to do? Daimaru used to sell it at about 10% cheaper and Yaohan used to sell it about 20% cheaper. Both are gone. Mediya price is also about Isetan price.

was in los gatos over the weekend, and saw a line waiting outside a hole in the wall sushi place on santa cruz avenue. place is called sushi on the run. japanese chef and two helpers at the bar, that's it. no tables, no chairs. just a bar and stools. he serves sushi straight from his work counter just like in japan.

I don't like mee pok. Mee kia as in wanton mee or duck mee is alright for me.

I don't like udon too, even if it's cheap. I like cold soba and soup ramen.

I dislike soup soba and cold ramen.

Price affects how often you can have it but not how much you like it.

Everybody has different tastes, doesn't mean that it's Japanese or expensive, it must be good to everybody.

I like sushi but only the supermarket take-away type. I'd buy some beer too. Once reached home, I placed them in the fridge for a few hours. Cold sushi is very good with cold beer when watching a DVD movie before sleeping.

For beer, Carlsberg all the way. For whisky, I agree with you, Chivas Regal.

It's just nice for me. Of course don't put in the freezer until it freezes solid. In the lower fridge compartment for a few hours is just nice.
