Ramen bar!


So today, my family and I went to this great ramen place. I had actually tried this on my last trip to Japan, but because it was so delicious, we decided to try it again. The way the menu works is as follows - there are 8 different kinds of broths, and each broth has the same set of 7 different toppings (ranging from having egg and pork in the ramen to just plain ramen). I had the spiciest ramen with no toppings (although there were still two slices of pork). The last few bites were a struggle, because the broth was a bit oily, but it was delicious nonetheless! I will definitely be coming back.


A bit of the menu. I had the plain Red Jangara - it was delicious!

Apparently this is a menu for all of the extra things you can order. Anyone who can read Kanji/Hiragana/Katagana want to verify this?

What my ramen looked like! The two slices of pork are in the top left of the bowl. 

Done! Delicious :)

First day in Japan!

Hello from Japan!

I decided that while on Winter Break, I'll update this blog with funny/cute/cool/awesome pictures that I took while spending time with my family in Japan. And so with that, here is the first round of pictures! Today, my mom and I went to Azabu-juban, a place with lots of cute little stores and restaurants, and so most of the pictures are of the stores/things in the store. Enjoy!

The first stop - A bakery! These are little cones filled with chocolate creme and custard. When I was little, I used to eat the cones filled with chocolate all the time, so when I saw this bakery I just had to step in and buy some :)

The sign says "Please calm down at night as this area is near the residential area"- I thought this was an interesting sign.

There was a place in Azabu-juban, called Frijoles, that's apparently a lot like Chipotle, so I ducked in to buy a burrito bowl. It was delicious!


A little piece of home? The menu  just a subset of the American menu (and more expensive)

Wendy's!

A sushi menu. Must try!
