Japanese food ~4~ Yakisoba

 

Today's dinner was Yakisoba. It was 650 yen.

8.30 US dollar

6.44 Euro

258.06 RUB

 

Yaki = baked

soba = noodles

 

I have not had Yakisoba for a long time. The last time was maybe more than 10 years ago.

Usually, you put some kinds of vegetables, such as cabbage, carrot, bean sprouts, onions and so on.

I have had similar chinese food abroad. But, the taste was totally different.

Can you see the red stuff on the left? It is called Beni- shouga

= a red collored ginger

If you eat Yakisoba in the Japanese restaurant, usually beni shouga is put on the yakisoba.

It tastes little bit sour.

 

We call inexpensive foods like Yakisoba ''B- kyu  gourmet''

It means B class gourmet. But I think Japanese don't always have negative image on

B-kyu gourmet.

(I think I will write about B-kyu gourmet in detail later.)
