The soft boiled egg that is dipped in soy/dashi sauce.

You are spoiled, my man. Not every ramen-ya here offers that.
For example, if you are in to hanjyaku tamago, you won't be able to find it at most noodle shops.

Nevertheless, we can enjoy it vicariously through your pictures, Takoyama. :bow:

Speaking of healthy and tasty food, if you visit Culver City often you have to eat at Tender Greens on Culver Blvd. Their salads and food are legendary. I absolutely love that place. If I lived in Culver City I'd go there several times a week.

Thanks for the recommendation! My friend lives off of Culver Blvd. I love salads, too!

Oh, goodness. If you love salads, Sengo, you most definitely owe it to yourself to eat at Tender Greens.

I happened to be in Culver City yesterday to buy some furniture, so I cruised by Tender Greens to buy some food....I went during lunch time, and the line was waaaay out the door, so I left.

Merely a testament to how good & popular that place is...you must eat there :D

I'm going to ask my friend if she's been to either/both of those restaurants then we'll pick one. Last time we went to a Thai restaurant on either Washington or Venice Blvd. It was OK.

Right on, man.

Tender Greens rocks...in fact they are building a new location on Sunset & Vine in Hollywood. But then again, you should also go to Urth...go to both!

Eek, I couldn't do that... If the egg's not fully cooked, there's no way I could eat it. :sweat:

In honor of the recent discussion about ramen.

My bowl of sumashi ramen from Takaraya ramen in Kyoto. :bow:

That bowl of ramen looks like a work of art! The gyoza, too!

It is and tasted like one, too. It was absolutely delicious and unique...given the fried gobo, chicken meatballs, and other unique ingredients such as bacon!

For obvious reasons, the ramen in Japan is beyond what any of us can experience locally here in the States.
