Hunting down Japan’s best bowl of ramen, or lusting after some soba (buckwheat noodles), can feel like a national pastime, while the hearty bowl of udon often gets overlooked. Udon is actually older than soba — the oldest of a long list of theories on how the noodle arrived in Japan dates the dish back to the Nara Period (710-94). Whether this is true or not, one thing’s for sure: By the beginning of the Edo Period (1603-1868), udon as we know it had become widespread across the country. Click on the link in our bio for the best udon joints in Tokyo to satisfy your stomach. 📸 Rebecca Saunders
