  3. The udon is actually "ramen" but it's not real ramen... the noodles are made from konyaku jelly. It's a type of potato starch that's formed into noodles. Normal noodles would dissipate in the hot broth after a few days.

    Next to it is corn chowder with noodles and oden... stuff (eggs, tofu, fish cakes, etc) that's simmered in a broth.
