Tampopo

Had post national day lunch with old time friends at Tampopo!

Sashimi to share


Wei's supposedly Berkshire Pork rice. Supposedly cos she was suspicious about the pork that was served.. She says that Black Pig is supposed to be fattier than that!


Plat's Salmon Chirashi


And finally, something that i have always wanted to try cos well... i am attracted to anything that has a raw egg as a topping. This is my beef curry rice with egg! The first few bites were yummy and it is especially good if you like gooey, soft, baby food... like me =) but i got kind of hot and tired eating it after a while. Hot because it was served in a stone bowl that kept the rice warm till the last few bites... Hmmm maybe i should buy a stone bowl cos i absolutely love my food HOT! The only thing about this rice dish is that it is deceivingly fatty! the beef pieces were all lined with thick layers of fats, but you cant really see it cos it is a mess of chessy, glooey, brown curry sauce. Nevertheless, I love beef fats! but of course not too much!

Tampopo Restaurant

Went to tampopo twice in 2 weeks! First was with ah T n the second visit was with the Owl. Why do i love tampopo? Seriously I don't know. I think there are better ramen out  there like, Ken Ramen, but still I find myself frequenting Tampopo. Anyway havent had the ramen craving for quite some time. But i am back with vengeance! 

K anyway this was the Ramen I had with Ah T and little S last week. Original Black Pig Shabu-Shabu ramen. Mmmmm it is GOOD! I like milk-based pork bone ramen! Very flavourful! And the black pork is thinly-sliced, shabu shabu style, unlike the usual slab of char siew. The noodles is springy, but not too springy, just the way i like it. Ahh the highlight of the meal was the egg! You add $1.20 for the egg as it doesnt come with it. The egg is lightly flavoured with soya-sauce. Once you sink your teeth into it, the yellow, runny yoke would peeked out of the whites. Best Tamago amongst all the ramen joint!

This is our side of black pig Gyoza. 
I had the original Kyushu Ramen on my second visit to Tampopo with the Owl. Again milk-based pork bone ramen top with cod roe, a slab of char siew and an egg. I am a fan of Kyushu Ramen, dont really like the Hokkaido Ramen as much but I can't wait for my Hokkaido trip in Dec where i would go on a Ramen binge.
Very fatty slab of char siew

This was what the Owl had, black pig (dont-know-what) ramen. Hmm actually if i were to do a taste test of normal pork and black pig, I wonder if I would be able to tell the difference. Ermm anyone willing to sponsor my taste test??
