Cool video of the soba makers at Gonpachi, but that's probably the best thing Eat, Drink & Be Merry found of the whole experience: "Honestly, I would be surprised if they last more than 2 years. If you take away the beautiful garden, the second story private rooms, the poor carpal-tunneled soba noodle man, Japanese wood and lavish cook stations... you're still left with food that is a little above average." UPDATE: EDBM got a little soft and took back his "won't last more than 2 years" assessment. But by the looks of the Eater comments, most people agree that it's not in it for the long haul.
