I've been awfully neglectful of my food blog but I was recently so inspired by a couple of newfound food blogs that I decided to post after my 3 month hiatus. When a dear friend came to visit me, naturally I took her to Harvard Square since she's never been to Boston before. We ate dinner at Takemura, a small Japanese restaurant located near IHOP at Harvard Square. The atmosphere was low key and I thought the walls were really cool since they were rice paper with Chinese calligraphy. I rarely have udon. I've only had it once in New York at St. Mark's Place but I remember that it was really good. I ordered the Nabeyaki Udon which are udon noodles with shrimp tempura, egg shrimp and vegetable served in a hot pot. Overall, I was disappointed. The shrimp tempura was not that crispy or fresh. The udon noodles were over cooked so they were too soft. The soup itself was bland so I had to add a lot of hot sauce. I think the next time I come here, I will try the sushi instead.
