  • And they give you your shears to cut the noodles? Is this a restaurant?

  • Loving the photo and Nahoko’s works.
    Albeit this is Okinawa and the kitchen shears are for the crab, seems allison has never been to a Korean restaurant?

  • Wait, the scissors could certainly be for the noodles. They cut my noodles all the time at Korean restos!

    Thanks for always stopping in, Dennis.

  • Thanks Kayoko! Always enjoy your posts.
    Yes had a few naengmyun cut the way, but never seen it done in Okinawa (or rest of Japan). Anyhow, I really miss these mom-n-pop shokudos… My sister is a huge fan of squid ink soup.

  • This looks delicious. Is there a place that you can sample something similar in Cal?
