Believe it or not, these noodles came from a dollar instant bowl...I simply jazzed it up by adding some Japanese flakes which I got from Japan in April '10 on my way back here...The brand of these noodles is Nissin Chicken Teriyaki flavor and this is what I would normally eat on weekends when i'm too lazy to prepare for lunch...It's something very quick and easy to prepare and for some reason, it's very satisfying and comforting...
It was in the summer of '10 when I took these pictures...I was off from school the whole summer and I had just bought the camera...Still exploring the settings, so I tried Macro mode for these shots...I was really pleased with the outcome, my dollar noodles looked more than Ten dollars...What a difference garnishing makes, plus, it tastes as good as it looks...Could you imagine how fast I had to eat this right after the shooting? In just a minute or two...C'mon, I was hungry from taking photos and I had to eat it while it's still warm...I could've reheated it but I didn't, it's summer and who wants to eat hot meal on a hot summer day?
I'm glad I have these curved bowls which I got from Marshall's for four dollars each, not bad huh? And I got the mug with Chinese characters from Hong Kong in April '10, while the red sauce jar is from Crate and Barrel which I filled with soy sauce...The red tray? Guess my husband got it in Thailand or somewhere in Asia...We love Asian art and decor especially antiques, too bad, my husband had sold most of them when he moved back here from Asia...He had nowhere to store them...I even saw some of the pieces when we visited one of his friends...
Anyway, noodles and rice are my kind of food...I remember eating instant noodles for lunch almost everyday when I was in Asia and my boss told me that it's not good for the health...I know it's not but it's so addictive...I also remember stopping by any convenience store for cup noodles...Something very easy & fast to grab when you're on the go...In Asia, you can get more flavors and much better quality...It just tastes so different back home...
