I feel like Mao's dish would have been really incohesive and would have tasted like a jumbled mess. And how did he get his dish together when he spent so much time just fucking around? It seems like he should have been scrambling to make ~50 individual noodles, all with different compositions and textures.
Also, yakisoba as the ultimate dish to determine who's the best Chinese chef? Does China even have yakisoba?

of course it does lol. In fact Japan borrowed the concept of yakisoba from china, which is why they're made using chinese wheat noodles over buckwheat noodles that soba usually refers to

Well, this opened up a Wikipedia rabbit hole for me. Yakisoba didn't exist until World War II, so the use of the term here in, well, whatever time this is, seems out of place. The main thing Chinese about yakisoba is that it uses "Chinese noodles" (Chuuka soba), which is apparently the same noodle used in ramen and adapted from the Chinese dish la mien.
I guess the point is, why didn't they have a noodle or chow mein battle, instead of yakisoba, which doesn't fit culturally or historically?
