Here’s one that came in a Zenpop box – here’s what they had to say about it – ‘We made sure to include a lighter option among the strong flavors in this month’s box. Thanks to the refreshing topping and how long the chicken and pork rested in the soy sauce base, you get a soup that perfectly pairs with thin noodles and hits you with a crisp soy sauce flavor. A great way to start the day as it’ll fuel you for whatever’s to come!’

#4887: Daikoku Akagi Chuka Soba – Japan
Here’s one that came in a Zenpop.jp box. Here’s what they had to say about it – ‘There’s plenty of hearty ramen bowls in this box so we’re happy to introduce you to this taste breaker! Chuka Soba focuses on a more crisp soy based soup that goes well with the chewy thin noodles. This combo creates a refreshing nostalgic taste that takes you back to the origin of Ramen in Japan. The toppings include green onion, bright egg, Naruto-maki, bamboo sprouts and even freeze dried grilled pork!’

#2371: Daikoku Tanuki Soba Cup
This is second of two cups I found at Uwajimaya. Similar graphics on them, the other is Kitsune Udon, this one is Tanuki Soba. So, what is a tanuki anyways? Here, we have some info from Wikipedia:
#2359: Daikoku Kitsune Udon
Animal noodles! Animal noodles? Yup – animal noodles. That’s at least what I used to call these – there are two of them very popular in Japan – kitsune uson and tanuki soba. Kitsune refers to a fox and has fried tofu with it. Tanuki soba usually has either a round disc of tempura or little bits of it. Here’s a little more info from Wikipedia –

Saw this one at Uwajimaya a few weeks ago after visiting the Living Computer Museum and walking around the Seattle International District – good times with my homie Matt B.
