With noodle consumption dating back over 4,000 years, this long, thin, wavy food has made its mark on many a region\u2019s culinary history. The noodle is revered as a staple food in much of the world, emerging in a variety of forms and local dishes. Noodles come in such a diversity of shapes and flavors, often emerging out of local food traditions. The noodle bar has come to represent a space to share this culinary history and build on the legacy of the noodle.<\/p>\n

The typology of the noodle bar usually centers around food prep, with a long seating area (the bar) adjacent to the kitchen. This emphasis on process gives visitors a more intimate experience of their food, understanding how it is made and how each specific restaurant has chosen to prepare their food. Rather than hiding the kitchen away, it is out in the open, engaging with visitors and showing the pride each chef takes in their work.<\/p>\n
