いただきます！Itadakimasu!

NOTE:

• For the best texture, please serve immediately after tossed somen with sauce!
  You can prepare all the ingredients before hands, but cannot keep somen noodles longer after boiled. (It will become soggy after a while!)
• Please serve noodle and sashimi COLD. (Cold then nice!)
• You can alternatively use Ikura, Uni, Cavia, Ama ebi, Engawa, crab meat, etc for topping as well. (It's your own creativity!)
