Summer Standard: White Sesame

Tanzan

The rich and creamy taste of white sesame can be enjoyed as it is in this classic cold udon noodle dish. It is easy to eat with just the right amount of spiciness, and is recommended for first-timers as well. The spiciness can be adjusted by adding more raayu (Chinese red chili oil) or leaving it out, depending on your preference. Prices are (small) 590 yen (tax included), (medium) 730 yen, and (large) 890 yen.

Based on a white sesame-based "tantan" (homemade noodles), this tantan udon is topped with six kinds of vegetables, including sunny lettuce, radish, carrot, okra, red cabbage, and red bell pepper, as well as steamed chicken and corn. The marriage of the plentiful vegetables and the tantan (sweet bean sauce) makes this dish more refreshing than one might imagine. Prices are (small) 690 yen, (medium) 830 yen, and (large) 990 yen.

Full-bodied Pork Shabu Tanzan
