Instant Ramen

MaxValu spotted in Rinku Town, Osaka. MaxValu is actually a large chain of super markets in Japan. Previously I had mentioned this Engrish on my Rinku Town photo article but this picture is far more convincing.

Not sure if this one or the National Meseum one in Narita is more amazing, but I’m sure this one reaches a wider audience — Japanese Wikipedia states that there is a total of 576 MaxValu stores.

Which reminds me, super markets and many convinience stores in Japan are open 24/7, which is indeed convenient ^^; — is this your case in your own country? In my case it isn’t.
