Big noise, necessary

Not only Udon but Soba and Ramen, you should make noise when eating those, and it is right way.
You will have noodles with soup when slurp those and taste the harmony of the flour and the soup.
When you did't, you just eat noodles and feel the taste weakly.

Make big noise!!!
Taste our culture!
