Kimchi and meat?

Finished (click to enlarge). Added soft egg, Salad Cosmo mung bean sprouts, spring onion, chashu pork and Hachi shichimi. The noodles came out nicely in the 3 minute steep time. They did alright with the broth. The broth was very tasty – bright and tangy. It was definitely kimchi, however not really spicy and no bitterness often found in South Korean counterparts. Very impressed. 4.0 out of 5.0 stars.  JAN bar code 4903088011257.
