Finished (click to enlarge). Added scallions and Salad Cosmo mung bean sprouts. The noodles definitely were off-putting to me. They have a almost clay-like chew to them that I just don’t like. The broth had a salty curry flavor to it, then the inclusions really just seemed like a kitsune udon’s provisions. Just not my thing. 2.0 out of 5.0 stars.  JAN bar code 4901990335669.
