My favourite festival food in Japan is without a doubt Yakisoba. It is cooked to order right infront of you and fills you up on a cold winters day while you explore Japan. A whole container of food will cost between $5 - $10.
I have since made my own version with authentic noodles and special yakisoba sauce from Tokyo Mart in Northbridge (Sydney). If I have some left over chicken from the night before, I will throw that in and make it an even heartier meal.
Here is my creation!
Complete with pickled ginger and nori (seaweed) garnishes. My chopsticks are fromTakayama and are shunkei laquerware. The gunmetal coloured plate is also from Takayama.
Individual serving with miso soup as well.
I am hungry just looking at these photos!

Yes, making me really hungry and a favourite of mine as well. I love my yakisoba with a fried egg on top and some Japanese mayonnaise :)
