Here it is, at last, the photo of the vending machine. No, it's not as sophisticated as you would think... Put your money in, pick a flavor, machine does its magic, then out pops a bowl of ramen.
Instead, you basically pay for your ramen at the vending machine, and the vending machine gives you a ticket. Walk into the restuarant with your ticket and the chef starts cooking.
The machine makes it look like there are a lot of choices, but there realy isn't. The red row is the small bowl, the green row is the medium size bowl, and the yellow row is the large bowl. At the very bottom, the white buttons are for additional stuff like extra meat, an egg, etc.
Good stuff.
