I love tempura, and yours looks so fresh and light. I’ll have to try the soba noodles on your glowing recommendation:)

As much as I like tempura I seldom make it at home because of the deep frying. This soba recipe sounds delicious, Barbara, and I’m looking forward to trying it.

I rarely cook fried foods at home either. Its just too messy 🙂 I tried churros over Christmas and it was a disaster.

Beautiful display of the noodles and tempura! The table looks as appetizing as the food. I’m glad you liked the soba – I was sure I would like it but I’d have to find a spicier sauce to go with it. And the tempura – I’m with you, I don’t do lots of frying – but the sweet potatoes were so good! Yours look very crispy, so you must have found the right temperature for the oil. Good job, Barbara!

I have always wanted to try soba noodles–this looks wonderful. But I agree about tempura–I hate frying and would rather eat it in a restaurant than make it. Your photo is wonderful–I love how you styled it–that fan is such a nice touch!

Love your soba and tempura. For a first timer this definitely looks like a wonderful turnout… I am admiring how crispy and tasty your tempura is 🙂

This looks great Barbara. I adore tempura, and all of those wonderful Asian flavours in the noodles sound devine. I also covet your very pretty fan!
