My bf loves ramen and this time round we had a friend of his who was itching for ramen when my bf told him about Ramen champion.. so happily 4 of us ordered 4 different ramen from the different stalls and the result was simply... ramen overload! This time around at Ramen Champion, i had the tonkotsu Tsukemen, which is a kind of ramen served dry and up to u to dip it in. Usually, tsukemen comes in a very light soup broth but this time, i had the tonkotsu one and I would say if u like a very heavy
This time around at Ramen Champion, i had the tonkotsu Tsukemen, which is a kind of ramen served dry and up to u to dip it in. Usually, tsukemen comes in a very light soup broth but this time, i had the tonkotsu one and I would say if u like a very heavy porky kind of broth you will love the one from Aoyama! Of the 4 different ramen we ordered this one is the heaviest in taste.. in fact, a little too heavy becoz my tummy was feeling abit too queasy after finishing all the soup. For girls who love ramen but are on low carb, this one is the best option! With the ramen serve dry on the side, you can easily portion out how much you want.. and mayb pass on the rest of the noodles to your hungrier male counterparts! =P Another great thing about this ramen is that the meat are very lean and other than chashu, they even had lean pork pieces much like the ones in our chinese double boiled soup. Oh and did i mention? Its only $12. =)
The other couple friends of ours ordered the tonkotsu from Ikkousha but the broth was much lighter than mine and was more of a milky colour. Ramen broth from Ikkousha is cooked for up to 12 hours with pork bones and soy so that it tastes rich and smooth. As you can see its flooding in soup becoz my lovely friend Vanessa asked for more soup and the stall obliged without complaints or any extra charge.
As you can see, we seem to love Tonkotsu alot. This third one chosen by the couple is another tonkotsu, but the soup was still less rich than the one from Aoyama, but the ramen is ‘rich’ in other ways. Firstly, they are full of bean sprouts and it seemed like its one of the more popular ones because every other i saw had the same whole bunch of beansprouts on their bowl! Anyway, the noodle was something i found too heavy for me because it was served with flat yellow noodles made from bread flour, looking much like our Hongkong noodles from the local Tze Char stalls. The other thing that was ‘rich’ was the pork.. if you look carefully, the serve thick slices of pork instead of the usual thin slices of chashu. If you love fatty pork, you will love this!
Lastly, my frenchboy tried something abit more funky than us– the Toyoma black ramen from Iroha! Whats that? Its ramen served with a dark black sauce cooked from shrimps and black pepper. The soup was more sauce than soup, abit on the starchy side. Nevertheless, it was tasteful but much heavier.. not sure if theres any cornstarch added because it reminds me of the chinese broth (hot & spicy soup texture).
