yummy dinner at samurai mama with kana.

i didn't get around to take a picture of her shrimp tempura udon,

but pictured above are gyoza appetizer (in cast-iron skillet),

my sansai udon, and m's pork belly udon - all so so good,

beyond perfect on a chilly rainy day.

their udon is cooked so al dente-ish and somehow to stay that way

throughout the meal, never getting soggy.
