Notes: Drunken Noodles are one of my favorite dishes to order when at a Thai restaurant so I was very excited to see this meal on the shelves at my local REI. The flavors are good but I do wish there was a bit more spice. The wide but small noodles rehydrated very nicely and this is one of the best textured backpacking meals I’ve had in a long time. While this meal did not transport me across the ocean to Thailand, it was a delicious dinner to enjoy next to a mountain lake. Cheers!

May the miles you hike be filled with wonder and the glasses you raise be filled with whiskey. Cheers!
