She also used to eat tanuki udon which is similar to kitsune udon. You have to replace the abura age with the leftover crispy pieces after cooking tempura or just use the batter (so it looks like you could have had this as well with your meal above).She also tells me that the name for both dishes come from Japanese folklore. As mentioned above the abura age is supposed to be a favorite food of foxes. The tanuki is known as a trickster. The tempura batter pieces are supposed to resemble actual tempura...thus tricking the eater that tempura is part of the soba meal. My wife used to eat kitsune udon regularly while a student in Japan.
