Tempura Udon


While Little Tokyo may be known for it's sushi, they also serve up a Japanese noodle soup known as Tempura Udon. Simply presented, this soup consists of Udon, which is a spaghetti-like thick wheat flour noodle swimming in a steaming bowl of a rich dark brown flavorful Dashi broth and strips of dark green seaweed. Key flavors of the Dashi broth are a dark soy and mirin.  This soup is completed with crispy tempura shrimp, carrot slices, onion ring, green bean, and broccoli surrounding the bowl.


Dining fact: Little Tokyo was the first sushi restaurant to open in Green Bay serving traditional Japanese cuisine dishes.
