**** 素麺：そうめん；SOUMEN ****
RAMEN is already well known Japanese food (originated in China).
These days, SOBA(Buckwheat) and UDON are also known by foreign people.
But SOUMEN is not known to the world yet (I think).
As SOUMEN is white, it imagens clean and cool (in temperature) for Japanese. Japanese love to have SOUMEN in Summer. SOUMEN in hot broth is called "NYUMEN".
