Back from Japan and nostalgic for miso soup already, so a quick dash to Soba to get some takeaway - udon noodles in what appears to be a feeble attempt at miso (far too watery to taste of anything much at all), and some vegetable tempura. Frankly, the tempura is rubbish; tastes very greasy and not at all crispy; I suppose it may be unfair to compare a takeaway in London with the genuine article in Tokyo and Nagoya, but for goodness' sake, how hard can it be to do things right?
