Negative Positive
Title: Very bland (even for Japanese cuisine)
Review: After living in Japan for 7 years one gets cravings for certain items. One day it was for soba. With no local sellers I tried this. Bad move. This is very generic, run of the mill, brand X. Nothing special about this at all. Japanese cuisine is supposed to be subtle and not overpowering, but even by those standards this was bland. Better luck next time.If you were going to eat the soba with tempura or onions or something else that imparts some flavor it might be good enough to get by in a pinch, but for plain-vanila "zaru-soba" it's not quite good enough.
Is the review positive or negative?
