Market visitors invited to grab some chopsticks and catch their lunch

Portland Farmers Market Noodle LugePortland, OR, August 27, 2019 – On Sunday, September 1, Portland Farmers Market and Umi Organic will bring the Noodle Luge, a tasty spin on an Olympic event, to the King Portland Farmers Market, creating delicious fun for the whole family.

Noodle Luge—or Nagashi Somen—is a popular summer pastime in Japan, especially with kids.

Armed with chopsticks and a bowl, participants line up along a bamboo flume to catch fresh Umi Organic ramen noodles as they flow past in a stream of water. Participants can then take the noodles they catch to a salad bar, hosted by the market, to add Hot Mama Salsa sauce and an assortment of fresh, local vegetables from market vendors.

Portland Farmers Market Noodle LugeMarket-goers of all ages are welcome to join in the challenge and enjoy its delicious reward.
