HANDMADE SOBA WITH CDC❤️

If you’re exploring authentic Japanese soba in Singapore, Reiwa Soba Honten at Bedok Reservoir is a must-visit. This family-run eatery specializes in freshly handmade 100% buckwheat soba noodles crafted on the spot without additives, ensuring a pure and traditional taste. One unique aspect I appreciated was their attention to detail with dishes like the Pan-fried Oyster Butter and the Wakasagi Buckwheat Flour Tempura, which I ended up ordering twice due to its crisp texture and perfect seasoning. For those who love a bit of spice, the REIWA Signature Spicy Pork Soba served cold offers a refreshing yet flavorful experience. If you’re curious about unique offerings, they also make umeshu (plum wine) in-house, adding an authentic touch to your meal. Note that the soba cake made from soba flour is innovative but might be a bit firmer than expected, so decide according to your preference. Convenience-wise, using CDC vouchers here is a bonus as there's no GST or service charge, making it a great value for quality Japanese fare. Since it’s a small family-run spot, I highly recommend reserving ahead to secure a table. This hidden restaurant's serene location by the reservoir also makes for a lovely dining atmosphere. Whether you’re a soba aficionado or trying Japanese noodles for the first time, Reiwa Soba Honten’s authentic flavors and welcoming vibe make every visit memorable.
