The Japanese food company Nissin Foods is one of the biggest food companies in Japan and one of its star products is cup noodles. The instant ramen (noodles) that was invented in Japan in the 1970s has been a real life saver for many people. Inexpensive, quick and easy to prepare, it is ideal for when you don’t have time to cook or are too tired.

The person who invented instant cup noodles was Momofuku Ando, founder or Nissin and its brand “Cup Noodles” is the most recognisable cup noodles in the world and a top selling product.

From Barcelona to Tokyo. Coffee & Adventure lover🌏☕️ 

I started to like Japan because of the anime, music and doramas, but after my first trip to the country I found what I love the most: traveling around, the culture and history. I have travelled a lot in Japan, but I still have many places to discover that I want to share with you🙋🏼‍♀️ Let’s discover Japan together!

 

Also, as a foreigner living in Japan for over 6 years I understand what kind of things are difficult when you move here and I want to help other people in the same situation that I have in the past.
