ll:if i was thinking ASIAN in the way of being chinese, I would be cooking my salmon with soya sauce and not miso with soba or whatever…ok, honestly, I would really take rice over cold soba any time. I am not really into cold savoury food..So cold kabocha would really not deliver it for me.

skipps: I don’t think French was a good idea…just for the sake that after my previous job, I had kinda fallen out with most things french!

but yes, the chances of me using french is higher than japanese. I would love to go to Japan again,but prohibitive costs are keeping me away

mags: yes. try it. salmon is nice…mix it in with some ‘kabocha’ and its like baby puree.

Hahahaha.. I know you are not Jap-restaurant but don’t you feel like Asian sometimes??!?!

I’ve tried Miso-Cod and they served with cold soba in a restaurant here! That’s how I got the idea.

I like cold Kabocha! Yums! Yest. I was watching a Jap cook show on how to make noodles and eggs in an agar-agar form. Served cold.

Truth be told-the S.O. dragged me to dinner last night at Ootoya. When I saw the Miso pasted salmon on the menu I thought of you and this post. (They serve it with rice though not Soba!)

nihon no ryori means japanese cooking. You did the right thing taking French. I’ve been studying Japanese for 7 years and its still kicking my butt.

skipps: are you having kabocha korroke tonight seeing its Halloween?

and also nihon no ryori (which i assume means japanese food..)

I had a choice to learn either japanese or french and obviously took up the wrong language.

sh:what do you mean?!?! You live in MAURITIUS! I am sure there are ‘some’ fish..

bacon does not like pumpkin. scratch that, he absolutely HATES it now, and has a baked potato instead.heh.

speaking of halloween, I will never forget your peterpan…omg.

Hmmm….this all looks very tempting and mouth-watering.

I think Bacon should start a blog to review the work of the chef/missus. Otherwise how would we know if its any good eh? Unless the whip is always nearby….

I’m starting to loathe reading your blog…..

First, don’t call it Jap food. That tends not to make friends over here. It’s nihon no ryori thank you very much.

That said, Little Lotus is correct. You would see the kabocha (pumpkin) served steamed as a side dish. The S.O. loves it-I’m not so big a fan. Cold soba is a possible side dish, but I usually don’t see it served as a side for fish.(except sushi or sashimi). Rice is more often served.

There is a resteraunt chain called Ootoya that serves set meals right along LL’s suggestion though. They usually hava huge flat fish that I cannot remember the name of.

eh,im not japanese restaurant ler.HAHAHAHAHA!

But yes, it would go perfectly well with dressed soba. Now you’ve got me hankering for good jap food…need to compensate…stuffing my face with grapes.

Maybe skipps would show us how its done in Japan.

Delish! I think if you wanted to make it more ‘asian’, serve miso salmon on a bed of cold soba w/ some tsuyu. Sprinkle some black & white sesame seeds and chopped seaweed too.

For vege, could always go for a side salad of thinly julliened cabbage/purple cabbage and tomato wedges with rice wine vinegar, soy sauce, sesame oil, sugar (optional: grated ginger)

You’re making me hunger!
