Here’s what they had to say about this one -‘Yakisoba, known as fried noodles, is beloved soul food in Osaka and a popular treat during Natsumatsuri at Yatai, the food stalls. What makes our Yakisoba special is that the noodles are infused with the sauce, providing a fragrant aroma and flavor reminiscent of being cooked on an iron plate. If you’re not a fan of mustard, feel free to enjoy your Yakisoba with regular mayonnaise instead. Customize it to suit your taste preferences and make it truly your own! Get ready to indulge in a hearty and authentic Yakisoba experience. It’s a taste that will transport you to the vibrant streets of Japan. Enjoy every mouthwatering bite!’
This one is truly wonderful – been enjoying it for years – especially that little packet of goo. Let’s begin.

The noodle block.
Yakisoba sauce.
A sachet of shichimi or green laver (seaweed).
A sachet of mustard.
Loose bits from the tray.
Finished (click to enlarge). Added chashu, narutomaki, spring onion, and sesame seed. This is just such a fantastic product. The noodle is in a great quantity and has a spongy character which works well here. It gets very coated with the sauce which is your classic yakisoba flavor – tamarind/Worcestershire-esque. Included vegetables are really nice. The mustard sauce though – wow. It just give it such a nice balance between the semi-dry noodle and a greasy texture. All in all, perfection. 5.0 out of 5.0 stars. JAN bar code 4902881048651.
