how did you eat it?

cold or warm?

in soup or w/o

I like it hot with broth, it has scallions and the broth kinda taste like miso.
really good for a cold day. and get a lil jump of warmth in ya.

Kitsune Udon is like the same but it has tofu and green onions, really good.

My favorite is Tempura Udon, it has fried prawn *yumm*

umm theres another kind with tempura and boiled bamboo shoots and veggies.

i forget what its called.

Theres a few places that sell JUST udon stuff in Takanawa *where i live*

Theres one that have specificly miso in it, kinda taste like Kistune.

and my friends mom made me Udonsuki
its a traditional hot pot w/ udon noodles has veggies and chicken and octopus and other seafood goodies.

you cant jus eat them right out of the packet.. like mmm said its kinda like eating spaghetti w/o all the sauce and the stuff you can put on it or cook it with.

there is Udon with curry but i cant stand curry, so i'd never touch it.

I notice the one udon restraunt that is near my house is usualy packed during lunch hours and have a line goin outside. Its also 2 minute walk from the Jr Shinigawa so alot of people on lunch break go there.


all and all its a very good noodle. a lil bit TOO filling for me, and i eat it when im feeling sick or when its really cold out.

theres also Vietnamese variations of it, with hot broth and chicken and beef with chopped onions.

and another viet dish that has that with a type of dumpling mixed with broth.
