| Where to buy Ramen noodles?
Such as the one used in Kintaro?
Is it possible?
Thanks.

Just the noodles? Try T&T in the frozen foods section.

No wonder it tasted a little different today. When will the machine be fix/replaced?

No they're not...you have to get the ones that have the soup stock included with them.
Then try the fresh ones in the vacuum sealed packages at Fujiya or go to the retail section of Angel Seafoods about 5 blocks away. If you know someone who works in the Japanese restaurant industry, have that person order you some ramen noodles from a supplier.

Someone needs to buy a machine and start selling fresh noodles to all the restaurants.
