special town of yakisoba

The other day, I introduced my hometown to you. So it's Fujinomiya. It's a special town of yakisoba. It calls fujinomiya yakisoba. Do you know yakisoba? It's fried noodles with sauce. Generally, there are cabbage, carrot, beansprout, pork and so on. And the noodles are made from kneaded flour and water. Then its are steamed and boiled.
But noodles of fujinomiya yakisoba are cooled down after steaming. Then its are coated with oil. So its are tighter than general noodles. I had been in Fjinomiya for 18years. So I had not eat general yakisoba for 18years. I thought that fujinomiya yakisoba is general. When I ate so-called general yakisoba for the first time, I was surprised. Because noodles are very soft. It is delicious. But I like fujinomiya yakisoba more.

Besides, water is delicious. Because it's springwater of Mt.Fuji. Even Running water is very good.
So we don't have to buy water. It has nature and easy to live. I like my hometown very much.

I love Yakisoba^^ I get to eat plenty of yakisoba when I am at my arubaito, but I don't eat meat, so veggie only. I've never had fujinomiya soba before but I am very curious to try some if I am ever able. you said th enoodles have a different texture?? that might be nice, sometimes soba can be a little mushy. what other kinds of food do you like??

Hello Yuki-san,

Mmmm... I'm hungry now. Yakisoba would be a very good dinner, but its so hard to get unless I go out to eat at a local Japanese restaurant in Portsmouth, NH, like where Joe works. He's very lucky...

I went to Sake in Portsmouth twice, and for some reason, I kept ordering the same dish; its a big bowl of yakisoba and tons of vegetables, and it was steaming hot and I could barely finish it! I was dissapointed I ordered it two times because I like trying new things.. but it was well worth it because the food filled me up and was so tasty. I can never go wrong when eating Japanese food. It really is some of the best food on the planet, in my opinion.

Thanks for the super-interesting blog! I love the picture of the food... so hungry now! :)

Yakisoba with meat is more delicious than with only veggie.
I like cheese very much.So Ilike gratin and pizza and so on.
