This is a bit of an unusual instant yakisoba noodle bowl. Yakisoba is a fried noodle dish which instant noodles simulate well after rehydrating and draining away all of the water for the deep fried variety. This Myojo instant yakisoba falls into this category, like most instant yakisoba noodles. Bamboo shoots and chili oil make this particular noodle dish stand out from the crowd. There is no meat or cabbage, common items in most yakisoba. Instead, there is menma or pickled bamboo shoots of two different varieties.A view of the Myojo bamboo shoot yakisoba packaging.
