I had lunch at Sanard. It's a renovated ordinary house, with the first floor transformed into a counter kitchen. It feels like the wife took a leap of faith to start this place. It's a learning experience to see dreams clash with reality. Running a business is tough. The interior seems to reflect the wife's ideal vision, with a modern cafe vibe. Let's see if this place becomes a community hub. The soba lunch is famous, but not available today. I settled for the Keema curry, which was okay. It would be nice to have more lunch options, but maybe that's not what the wife envisions. The challenges of running a business. Thank you for the meal.

I visited a cafe in the residential area of Mihara that offers soba lunch on certain days. Since it was cold, I chose warm soba. The broth had a curry nanban-like flavor. The small onigiri was also delicious. Overall, it was quite good.

Located on a local road facing the Chuo Line, with parking for 4 cars on site. Lunch options usually include Keema Curry and Hot Sandwich, but on Fridays at lunchtime twice a month, they offer a Soba lunch set for ¥1,000. The light gray, medium-thick Soba noodles were of good quality, with a moderate chewiness and a fine texture. The flavor was excellent. The set comes with two types of dipping sauce: 1) Normal, medium-thick and smooth with a slightly different taste that was hard to pinpoint, and 2) A unique blend with shiitake mushrooms and burdock that was delicious. The mini rice ball and side dish were also tasty. Overall, the atmosphere and service were great, making it an enjoyable dining experience.
