#2160: Menraku Japanese Yakisoba Umami Sauce

It’s been a long time since I’ve reviewed anything by Menraku. Alwats bowls and always pretty good stuff. This one’s a yakisoba I got while on vacation in California’s Bay Area! Let’s check it out!

The noodle block.

The liquid sachet.

Thick with a nice yakisoba scent.

The garnish sachet.

Looks like bits of cabbage.

Finished (click to enlarge). Added pork, garlic, spring onion, enoki mushroom and mayonnaise. The noodles have a good chew and good gauge to them. They picked up the sauce which coated everything and had a very good taste – Worcestershire, salty and sweet and a little bit of a smoky kind of taste. The cabbage hydrated perfect and was large and lots of it. 5.0 out of 5.0 stars.  EAN bar code 4902663012955.
