Asian noodles are having their time in the Sonoma County sun these days, with about a half dozen new shops opening over the past year or so. Each has a slightly different focus, and here, at Ippinn Udon & Tempura, the name says it all. Except actually, the cheerful, fast casual shop also offers bites like potato croquettes, chicken karaage, octopus balls and taiyaki (adorable bean paste desserts fashioned into fish shapes). Plus, you can switch out noodles for rice, and the toppings available for both are so lengthy it’s almost like a full restaurant. Chicken, pork belly, curry tofu… you get the tasty idea.
