If you’re looking for a quick and tasty meal in Japan, Cup Noodle is a go-to option—especially if you’re not overly health-conscious. Popular among office workers and students, Cup Noodle is a staple in every convenience store (combini) that mainly comes in three flavors (original, seafood and curry). They’re filling, cheap, and super easy to prepare; just add hot water (conveniently located near any combini register) up to the line marked inside the cup.
What makes buying instant noodles in Japan unique is the variety. While ramen is the most common, you’ll also find instant udon and yakisoba—options that are harder to come by outside Japan. So, during your visit, don’t miss the chance to try this iconic meal. One bowl won’t hurt!
