It Doesn't Get Much More Japanese...

...than devouring a bowl of soba on New Year's Eve!

The soba noodles were from Japan. The dipping sauce Megumi made some time ago; we had frozen some. Negi (Japanese leeks) from the garden. Nori (seaweed) also from Japan, along with the wasabi (from powder). Most of these things, though, we can also get hold of at a Chinese supermarket in Lisbon.
