From Citysearch

In Short
A hand-planed wood waiting bench welcomes guests; dishes are served in thrown pottery and soaring ceilings don't detract from the comfy, casual vibe. The St. Paul Farmers' Market is just across the street, and the Tanpopo chefs carry armloads of fresh ingredients back to their kitchen. Traditional Japanese noodle dishes are served hot (soups) or cold (salads), and you choose either udon or soba noodles to go with the simple mushroom, chicken and veggie combinations.
