Oodles of Noodles Lunch

Estimated Grocery Cost: $45–$75, approx. $5.50~$9.40 per serving.

In Japan, noodles aren’t just a meal — they’re a mood. Cold soba on a hot summer day feels calm and refreshing. Steamy udon on a chilly day feels like a hug in a bowl. Growing up, noodles were my “quick happiness meal.” Not fancy, not complicated — just simple, slurp-worthy joy.

Oodles of Noodles Lunch brings that feeling to your home: a comforting, cozy noodle experience that works beautifully for lunch, lazy weekends, or a light dinner.
Start Your Noodle Adventure

Udon うどん (Chewy, cozy, kid-friendly)
A warm bowl with broth, noodles, and your choice of toppings. Great for families and anyone who loves a hearty comfort dish.

Soba そば (Buckwheat noodles)
Served either hot in broth or cold with dipping sauce (great for spring/summer). A very “Japanese-home” feeling meal.

Yakisoba やきそば(Savory stir-fried noodles)
A classic street-style dish made with stir-fried noodles, vegetables, and your choice of protein. Perfect for a fun, flavorful lunch that feels both casual and satisfying.

Add veggies (and seaweed if you like)

  • Chicken (Simmered or tempura)

  • Shrimp (Simmered or tempura)

  • Pork (typically for Yakisoba)

When you choose cold noodle option, your choice of protein is served as tempura topping on the side.

Pick Your Protein (or go meatless)

  • Wakame seaweed

  • Napa or regular cabbage

  • Bean sprouts

  • Green / yellow onion

  • Your favorite vegetables

About the broth(tsuyu) and sauce

  • Udon and Soba comes with home-style soy broth

    • Light, savory, gentle - the classic Japanese flavor. Uses Bonito/Fish based dashi.

    • As a vegan option, I can prepare the broth without Bonito and use mushroom and kelp-based dashi.

  • Yakisoba is flavored using Japanese stir-fry sauce

    • If the contents of the sauce does not agree with your dietary needs, I can mix-up a special sauce blend

Recommended Sides

Dashimaki Tamago

  • Cucumber (Classic choice)

  • Napa Cabbage and Carrot (Also popular)

  • Adding wakame or konbu seaweed

  • Roasted sesame seeds sprinkled on top

They are the all classic combinations. If you've never had it, flavoring is mild and slightly sweet. I recommend the combination of cucumber and wakame seaweed.

Sunomono (rice vinegar marinated salad)

  • Japanese rolled egg omelet

'Dashi' is basically the soup base used for Soba/Udon noodles. A little of that's mixed into the egg, then rolled up to make this tasty omelet typically offered at noodle houses.

Japanese Potato Salad

  • Potatoes

  • Cucumber

  • Carrots

  • Onion

  • Ham

  • Hard Boiled Eggs

Mix-ins can be adjusted to match your preference

Dietary Considerations
  • All types of noodles contain wheat flour (gluten).

  • I use sesame oil in some salad dishes (easily substituted)

Drink Considerations (BYOB)
  • Beer

  • White wine

  • Sake

  • Green tea
