Kanda Soba, Clark Quay Central

Kanda Soba, mazesoba

Kanda Soba is another relatively new mazesoba shop that opened at the food court beside Don Don Donki at Clark Quay Central (#B1-31 Clark Quay Central, 6 Eu Tong Sen Street). Just in case anyone is mistaken, these guys are from Korea, not Japan.

That's their original mazesoba up there where they threw in a couple of meat sushi and a bowl of soup during lunch. After mixing, the noodles looked a little wet and I had mistakenly assumed that it might fall short of expectations against the dryer variety like Menya Kokoro or Enishi but I was reined back from those misgivings after the first chopstick-ful. It was full of umami and deliciously peppery amidst all the other flavour and textures from the toppings.

They also had a cream mazesoba which featured warm noodles topped with cream made with potato and coconut. We were told not to mix them like one would normally do mazesoba and eat as it was served. Cream was pretty light and the noodles below tasted like their original mazesoba. Got surfeited towards the end of the bowl.

Their meat sushis were small. One could choose between beef and pork. One had mentaiko and neg and other had cream cheese and a dried cranberry. Not bad. Felt like a puny version of actual sushi like what sliders are to burgers.
