Peanut-ginger udon noodles
Alcoholic beverages
Japanese cuisine

When I was in college, I spent a lot of time at a place called the Book Mill. It's a used bookstore housed in an old gristmill, with dark musty corners and vintage armchairs everywhere. The attached cafe served wonderful lunches--fruit and cheese boards, peanut-ginger udon noodles, grilled cheese sandwiches. My friends and would order lunch, claim one of the big black tables near the windows, and work on our schoolwork while the river splashed by underneath us. This is my attempt to turn a recipe from The Kitchn into one of my favorite Book Mill lunch dishes--the peanut-ginger udon noodles. It's not quite the same, of course, but it's still delicious.
