Now that looks good.

That's my vote getter so far. Looks good and is traditional.

Brilliant!:clap:

I planned my meal and took beef out of the freezer for it but will not be able to do the cook. I even bought edamame and sake for it! This week has been next to impossible with deadlines met and not met and we're going out of town again tomorrow. Regrets for not being able to provide a Japanese entry or join in discussion of the cooks. Good luck in your cooks!

Did you make obnoxiously loud slurping noises when you ate it? Looks good, but it is not authentic without the obnoxiously loud slurping noises.

Please tell me you didn't Ronelle as I really want to vote for your dish and that would ruin it for me... :mmph:

This throwdown brought back memories from when I was stationed on Okinawa back in the 80's when the yen rate was over 200 to the dollar. After a night out or a day checking out the sites I would always grab either some yakisoba or chicken yakitori to eat on my walk back to base.
Last nights dinner was my first attempt at making those dishes.

Yakitori ingredients

Please use the above pic as my entry into the throwdown.

The chicken yakitori was very good. The yakisoba was good but not quite there. I'll keep tweaking the recipe to get it right.

It was a fun trip down memory lane and my family enjoyed it.

Thanks for looking.

Great looking entry gsmith.

 

[Al Czervik]

Great cook gsmith... As a former resident of Okinawa as well, I wholeheartedly give you two thumbs way up! :thumb::thumb:

The entry...cook thread HERE

This dish gets 4 thumbs up:clap:

 

[landarc]

Wow, four thumbs! Woo hoo!

I have a relative down south, who has two full fingers, he worked for a Chinese butcher down there, his FIL. Said the fingers get numb and you just cut them off sometimes. :twitch:

 

[landarc]

Gsmith, nice cook.

what's not right with the yakisoba, I might be able to help with that

 

[silverfinger]

Great entry Gsmith,
And since I'm passing out thumbs today.

I sure hope I get a chance to enter this throwdown.:mmph:
