Udon Japan

Classic Udon with Waygu Beef. When I was in Japan, I took a Udon class at a michelin udon restaurant. We created our own udon with the Chef and finished our dishes. The opportunity to travel to Japan and improve my culinary knowledge/skills while enjoying Japanese cuisine was unremarkable.
