Food was great. Service was aggravating, but I think I understand why. Tablelog rates this place as 3.48, decent rating from what I understand regarding Tabelog reviews. Google shreds it with 3.7, I partly understand why. I am realizing the tourist heavy places have issues you wont get with mom and pop or neighborhood spots. Still having incredible experiences my second time here and am already fantasizing about a third!

Shiso I grew from seed. It finally sprouted! All that talking to it every day paid off.

I like a soup called "3.8 Billion Years of Wind." It’s rich and spicy—but not too hot—and the saltiness is just right. The fried chicken in it is delicious, too.

I never see ramen with this much cheese before 😆 Cheese was everywhere and taste was very rich. Also little pork rice on side. This meal was very powerful lol.

Brought a salmon home from the beach a couple days ago. Butchered it, cured the roe, and cooked a filet yesterday. Tonight I made broiled salted collars, a teriyaki filet, and ikura hand rolls, with some ohitashi, horenso gomaae, sunomono, a side of pickles, and sake (of course). Life is good. Grateful for salmon and the tasty nutrients they provide. Still have 3/4 of the fish left. I plan to cure it tonight, smoke it tomorrow, give some away, and enjoy smoked salmon for the next week.

Red miso ramen and mushroom oil ramen, plus extra noodles and pork on the side.

No regrets. Although we may have slightly overestimated how hungry we were.

I’ve been on the search to find this snack!!
I live in the Seattle area, and just can’t find them anymore! They used to be in every local Asian market but not it seems like they don’t exist :(

The most meat-focused ramen I've ever had. Extra noodles were free too! Do you guys like to get rice with your ramen? If you've never tried it, you definitely should!

Question How might a Japanese person make easy ramen at home that’s not from an instant packet?

2 Upvotes

Rather than just an instant packet, what are the other ways Japanese people make an easy ramen meal at home without going through the lengthy process of making a homemade broth from scratch?

Last night was all about Asian flavors and a little culinary adventure. Started with soft, fluffy bao buns filled with savory goodness, followed by a deliciously creamy, spicy seafood bowl topped with a touch of roe. A beautiful combination of textures, flavors, and just the right amount of indulgence.
Good food, a relaxed evening, and another little memory worth keeping.
