The lumpy noodles are entwined with the noodles and are delicious

◆ FamilyMart noodles are hard

FamilyMart's Hiyashi chuka contains the same ingredients as Lawson. One big difference is that the seasoning of the char siu is quite modest.

Also, the noodles at FamilyMart are a little hard. It's crispy and doesn't have a very chewy texture. This seems to have different tastes.

The more you chew the char siu, the sweeter the fat of the meat spreads. You can feel the deliciousness of pork and it is delicious. And the soup had a rich and slightly sweet taste, and I felt it was the most mellow of the three companies.

◆ The most delicious thing was ...

Personally, I liked Famima's chilled Chinese noodles, except for the hard noodles. The richness of the ingredients, the deliciousness of the char siu, and the taste of the soup are the decisive factors.

Of course, 7-ELEVEN and Lawson were delicious, but 7-ELEVEN was a little lonely with the ingredients (mainly egg and char siu), and Lawson's char siu sauce was a little too thick for me.

However, each company has its own deliciousness points, so why not buy it at the nearest convenience store on the day when it's chilled Chinese weather today!
