Kumamoto
Served at school lunches, this Kumamoto favorite was actually born in China
Tai-Pi-En
Made with plenty of green bean thread noodles and vegetables, the healthy Tai-Pi-En contains pork, prawns, squid, cabbage, carrots, seasonal vegetables and egg. It is served in a chicken or pork broth, and is loved by locals. It originates from Hokkien province in China, and was brought over by migrants during the Meiji period (1868-1912) and has since been modified to suit Japanese tastes. It can be found at Chinese restaurants across Kumamoto and the flavors come in soy sauce, salt or pork bone. It can even be purchased in ‘instant noodle’ form now.
