🍜 Yume Ga Arukara: Cambridge’s Udon Spot—Refreshing, But Best Shared Finally tried this tiny udon shop tucked in a Lesley University building—good news: they take cards now! The menu’s simple: hot or cold udon, spicy or not, with or without meat. Straightforward, but satisfying. 🍲 The Order Signature Cold Udon ($14) + Onsen Egg ($3): 🥢 Perfect for a 30°C day—icy, chewy udon in a sweet, savory broth, topped with tender, caramelized beef. First few bites? Delicious. The udon is springy, the broth bright, and the egg’s runny yolk adds creaminess. The Catch: By halfway, the sweetness starts to cloy. It’s a lot for one person—rich, unchanging in flavor, and filling. I couldn’t finish mine (no victory cheer for my bowl, alas). ✨ The Vibe Small, casual, with a quick “pay first, line up” system. Great for a solo meal or a light bite, but share a bowl if you’re not a big eater. Price: Reasonable for the portion—$17 with the egg, but splitting would make it even better. Yume Ga Arukara delivers solid udon, especially on a hot day. Just pace yourself (or bring a friend to finish the bowl). 📍 Yume Ga Arukara 1815 Massachusetts Ave, Cambridge, MA 02140 #BostonUdon #CasualEats #CambridgeFood
