somen
Devil’s Club noodles are over half the length of an average human, so how the heck do you eat them?
Go devises his own, completely unique way to enjoy a classic summer meal, and named it: Jibun wo Nagashi Somen.
These five flavors of cute and colorful Miwa somen are just in time to brighten up your summer.
Nagashi somen-style dining at home for when your local restaurant and water park are closed.
No need to resolve the timeless dilemma when meal-time comes, as you can do both at the same time, and all in the comfort of your own home!
Is this the makings of a great meal in the great outdoors, or another one of Mr. Sato’s too-crazy-for-his-own-good schemes?
