ippudo aka-miso & shiro-miso nama ramen

11/20/2016

Ippudo ramen is a world class ramen chain that seems to be on an expansion kick recently. They’ve joined up with Panda Restaurant Group (yes, as in Panda Express…) to bring Ippudo to the West Coast (Berkeley & Santa Monica, are you ready?), and now it looks like they’ve come out with nama ramen versions…

Those of you who follow Go Ramen! know that Keizo, the writer of Go Ramen! has been in Japan, living his dream of becoming a ramen chef. A couple of months ago, I got a message from Keizo telling me that he was back in CA visiting, and had something for little ol’ me! Imagine…

ramen review: sun noodles miso ramen

12/14/2010

Take some tasty ramen noodles and add them to a bowl of miso soup and you get this ramen. The thickish red miso broth is decent. It’s slightly sweet with just the barest hint of a spicy kick. The prefectly al-dente noodles are clearly the star here, and push this ramen up to a just-above-average…

ramen rating: sun noodles shoyu

12/13/2010

I’ve always admired Sun Noodle’s simple packaging for this nama ramen. The noodles just look so simple and fresh. Will reality match perception? Mmm, the tasty shoyu broth has a mellow barely-sweet undertone, but is clear and not too heavy. For a nama ramen, it’s great. And the firm curly noodles have a great chewy…

11/29/2009

Now you can enjoy Ajisen Ramen at home! The globe-spanning Ajisen Ramen chain now has their very own kumamoto nama ramen! I don’t usually mention price in my reviews, but it bears noting that Ajisen’s nama ramen is the most expensive nama ramen I’ve seen, at just under $7 for a pack of 2. Another…

I realized after the fact that my last review was post #200. Though the majority of my earlier posts were not much more than the blogging equivalent of caveman grunts, allow me a moment to pat myself on the back for reaching a milestone, even if it took me long enough to do it. It’s…

With packaging reminiscent of something out of a science fiction setting, this is one of the neatest forms of ramen packaging I’ve come across. Goramen’s Keizo was nice enough to share his spoils from the Yokohama Ramen Museum, and I expected quite a treat. I spent some time opening the ramen cube and taking pictures.…

you’re really supposed to add your own ingredients to this type of box ramen, like veggies and onions and maybe some meat…without additional goodies, it’s very very average…both the noodles and the soup is just boooring…it gets a 5

This somewhat ordinary looking package hides a somewhat not-so-ordinary nama ramen. The first surprise of this ramen is the lack of individual plastic bags around the noodles. This is certainly the freshest-looking package of ramen I’ve ever seen. I could almost picture the noodles being made from scratch, packaged, and delivered straight to the store.…

This is the last day of Ogawaya ramen week (actually, this review is 2 days late. Sorry…had a busy weekend), and I’m a bit sad. But, I’m also a bit glad…you try to come up with 5 different and interesting ways to describe the same noodles! I also want to give a shoutout to rameniac…

I have a bad habit of not really looking at or reading the packages of ramen that I eat until after I’ve eaten them. In this case, I was a bit surprised to open the package and see two different colored soup packets…was this some special “red/white song battle” (K?haku Uta Gassen) ramen? No, there’re…

Day 3 of Ogawaya ramen week continues with the kurume ichiban noko tonkotsu ramen! (It just occurred to me to read the rest of the ramen packages I bought last weekend, and I realized that all the ramen were made by Ogawaya. Duh!) Kurume ramen is from the Kurume region of Fukuoka, where tonkotsu ramen…

Most Americans know ramen only in the 5000-pack for a buck instant variety and as “starving college student food.” But ramen is so much more. Read more...
