      About This Book

      Ramen, also known as chukka soba (Chinese noodles), originated in China and spread to Japan in the 1880's. Japanese troops returning from colonial Manchuria further popularized this dish. During the last days of the Second World War, a Japanese military officer revisits this bittersweet legacy on the streets of Occupied Singapore. This short story is written in English and Chinese (simple script) for English-speaking students of the Chinese language. Illustrated with black and white photographs of Japan and Singapore. Features a photo gallery, with explanations, of noodle dishes in Japan, China, Singapore, Hong Kong and America. For literature students, it also includes a study guide by the author.
