The full list with descriptions, and a google map is at their site.

Udon noodles come in these great little packages at T&T. I bought them and have been getting them regularly every trip. They store forever and keep better than the frozen kind which get freezerburned too often.

• Beef ribeye sliced thinly
• Udon noodles packaged
• Beef broth
• King oyster mushrooms
• Bok choy (or spinach or other nice green veg)
• Green onion/Scallion

1. Cut beef into very thin strips and cook on medium low heat in a fry pan. When finished, set aside.
2. Boil enough water to cover the udon noodles for only 2-3 minutes, then drain and set aside.
3. Bring beef broth (or chicken broth) to a boil, quickly add bok choy and king oyster mushrooms. Add noodles just a minute later, then finally the beef. Turn off the heat and let stew for a minute.
4. Plate and serve, garnish with green onion.
