The following day, which was a Friday, we ate lunch at Sanuki Ramen in Shibuya. It was here I learned a valuable lesson: when it comes to udon, most New Yorkers pay way too much for for soggy noodles drowned in salty hot water.Udon at Sanuki ranges from $3-$5 depending on size, and it is far more flavorful than anything I've ever tasted in New York.
I was beyond satisfied with my choice of mentaiko udon, which was the perfect balance of broth and perfectly textured noodles. Since I was pacing myself for meals to come, I didn't indulge in the toppings bar with additions such as shrimp tempura and various vegetables; I did, however, take advantage of the free tempura flakes. Next time I'll be sure to order the small so I have room to load up!
