Noobie Foodie│Ippudo Ramen Sydney

Hi Friends!

It's winter and right now it's absolutely FREEZING which is not all bad since it's a great excuse to eat one of my favourite food - RAMEN! Since Ippudo opened I've only had the opportunity to go there a few times and I've always enjoyed my experiences there! Here is my Noobie Foodie review of one of the most talked about ramen places in Sydney!

♣

So first the food!!

Pork Buns! 

Pork buns #2! 

How does one eat at Ippudo and not have the delicious pork buns ($4)? The succulent and juicy pork slice in soft fluffy buns delicious! My only wish is that they can be a bit bigger! And the sauce for the pork buns YUM!!

Gyoza

Another must have with ramen is Gyoza ($6) which is the Japanese version of dumplings! I have to admit these were not the best dumplings I've ever had because they were a bit too burnt and there wasn't enough filling inside for my liking. But I'm very pedantic about my gyoza so that's another reason why I didn't find these very satisfying. 

This was the Miso Tonkotsu Chashu ramen ($22) which is a part of their seasonal ramen menu - Chapter 6! With miso fused with pork as broth and thin slices of chashu on the top! 

I choose the Akamaru Tamago ($19) because I really love the preserved egg in ramen! And the little bit of extra spice! The broth isn't very thick and it was really important to mix the broth as there was a bit of oil residue on the top but overall it was pretty yum!

Noobie Foodie│Ramen Ikkyu

HI FRIENDS! 

Ramen is one of my serious favourite foods! And it's one of the main reasons why I miss Japan so so so much!! So recently I decided to (finally) try Ramen Ikkyu in Sussex food court. Needless to say I was really excited to try it! And it definitely didn't disappoint me at all! 

RAMEN TIME!

Here comes the fooddddd 

Ikkyu Miso Ramen

I ordered the Ikkyu Miso Ramen ($11.50) because I like a lighter soup plus a bit more vegetables in my ramen. IT WAS AWESOME! The meat was so flavoursome, soft and tender! The highlight for me was the egg - it was literally onsen tamogo perfection! Deliciously runny egg york combined with the light miso soup AHHH HEAVENLY RAMEN! 

EGG PORN - my favourite type of porn! 

I love the egg!! Seriously I want to learn how to make such amazing eggs! 

Tokyo Soy Ramen! 

My friend who was trying ramen for THE FIRST TIME EVER ordered the Tokyo Soy Ramen ($11.5) which had char siu pork with 1 WHOLE EGG! (I'm so jealous because she got more egg action than I did...clearly need to order this next time) and nori seaweed on the side! She loved this ramen! YESH successfully converted! YAY!
