Arabian Chow Mein

Yakisoba noodle is a popular Japanese snack originating from chow mein or fried Chinese noodles.

A variety of instant noodles including yakisoba are sold at the supermarkets in Japan. I hardly ever eat instant noodles, but I could not resist the curiosity to try it when I found the name of the noodles.

“Arabian Yakisoba”, I wonder if they ever have a habit of eating fried noodles in Arabic countries? Does the image on the package look like an Indian wearing turban?

However, we have “Hong Kong Yakisoba”, another instant chow mein exclusively sold in Hokkaido. I have no idea what associates yakisoba noodles with “Arabian” and “Hong Kong”.

Anyway, the taste of Arabian yakisoba was almost the same as Hong Kong yakisoba. I found just a little smell of cumin in Arabian yakisoba, though.
