Cocoron Soba House: New York

Date:  16 mars 2011
Location:  61 Delancey Street
New York, NY 10002-2916
Telephone:  +1 212 925 5220

In search for the best noodle houses in NYC!!  I have found one.  Cocoron Soba Noodle House.  They make everything fresh here, from their daily fresh soba noodes, down to their daily fresh tofu, and home made desserts.  To top it off, each soba noodle dish is also individually prepared.  The ingredients are cooked separately in different pans/pots, until the perfect serving time when they are then combined into the same serving dish.  Oh, the soba is also served Al Dente!! 

The soba eating style is to take your noodles and dip it into the soup with each individual bite.  I loved this method of eating which forces you to stop and take your time.  Life in a New York minute - in slow motion.  :)  I went during the end of lunc time on a Saturday.  Arrived at 2pm (they close at 230pm).  So, I nearly had the place to myself.  Which is important, if you like enjoying your meal in calm and quiet.  The restaurant is teeny tiny, so I can see this place will become bustling at night and busy lunch hours. 

The staff is soooo sweet and attentive, being that they take utmost pride in their art of soba.

Hi there,
Cocoron is the best soba place in NYC. Their dashi broth is superior to Sobaya or even Soba Totto, no small soba players. Since menu is small, it's worth trying everything (grilled mochi bacon, divine, didn't know it's a sort of classic dish in Japan.)
I followed your other posts and from Bellagio (I stayed at a friend's family house there) to Brushstroke (I asked Seiju Yang to define 'umami' for a friend, but he was too busy) and of course this Cocoron, you draw an interesting profile...A few more posts and you'll be up there with Chez Pimm's!
