Cocoron

We're getting used to seeing a closed sign at Cocoron around lunch time. Last time they were closed because it was Monday. Today they were closed because it was 12:50pm and they wouldn't be open for another 10 minutes. So we strolled around the block, picked up dessert for afternoon coffee, got back in time to snag one of 3 small tables. And then proceeded to have an extremely good soba lunch. I had the lunch special sliced pork cold soba while M. went with the natto soba. We remain giddy with happiness over Cocoron soba.
