Nagashi Somen - catching somen noddles in a stream...

Ebi-kun has been wanting to try nagashi somen for a long time. Somen noodles are cooked and then they are sent down a 'stream' in a bamboo shoot. You need to catch the noodles ad they whizz past - easier said than done!

The school dads association set it up this year and the PTA had cleaning duties in the morning so it all worked out this year.

He is quite the noodle slurper.... in Japan is is perfectly OK to slurp food which I find really hard to listen to, being bought up in a culture where slupring food is considered rude!
