Shiitake, green beans, broccoli, onion, carrot and pad noodles. A very light lo mein sauce of hoisin, soy sauce, sesame oil, rice vinegar, sugar and red pepper flakes. Some avocado to top it.

I may have put in too many veg. Didn’t even have room for any cabbage.

Cost per person $2.10

    Holy hell.
    I would absolutely skip many a ‘medium-end,’ ‘high-end’ joint if I could munch nicely on that shizzle. oO

    Reminds me a bit of that nice “Jap Che,” which I had on my phone a couple months ago, but still can’t figure out how the FLUFF to now transfer my images over to my PC, since some Android change, or whatever it was. Foof, bloody hell.

      Japche is glass noodles, beef and peppers. I thought about adding peppers but, just like the cabbage, there just wasn’t going to be any room for them. And this dish is accidentally vegan, so no beef. But the sauce is very similar. I haven’t done glass noodles in years. Probably because they are 30 miles away instead of the half mile it used to be.

      Funny thing is glass noodles were half a mile away despite for 20 years despite living in three different states. There was always a local Asian market within walking distance. But now that I live in the country it’s two gallons of gas away.

        Fuck. Every time I read the news, it’s just worse. Like-- the primacy point of humanity is to COOPERATE, right?

        But… NOOOOOOOO…!

          Having a hard time seeing the connection between my comment and that rant. The rant isn’t wrong. It’s just disconnected from the conversation.
