Ramen Review 005

I've been holding on to this one for a while. Right off the bat it's really miso-ey. That's a promising thing. Smells good and all. One thing that I don't dig on the appearance is the large 'fresh' noodles. Smaller would've been better methinks. Despite appearance the noodles are better than most and the re-hydrated seaweed is a fine touch. Ummmm.... it's a little sour. It separates the broth from the noodle a bit too quickly.
Gotta give this one four asterisks. ****


Coffee Stain Art Week #3

Again we see a Mickey Mouse figure. Possibly a dragon shooting the flames. The famed mouse appears to be giving the finger to the firmament. This was done with the graduation cut my head off mug. What do you see?

Ramen Review 004

Today we have what appears to be another super big ramen. And I'm gonna shoyu like soysauce what I thought of the experience. It came with a little packet of oil along with the dried and powdered ingredients. Looks and smells like a serious shoyu style ramen however. It even has freeze dried fishcakes ( that sink to the bottom) but nonetheless deliver a semblance of the image on the lid. The noodles seem thicker than the tonkotsu counterpart from last week. Surprisingly it's a little less salty. I give this one five asterisks.
