Cold tom...

Day 582:

It was prep Wednesday again and during our lunch break Fujimatsu-san and I found ourselves AGAIN at Vinawalk's little ramen street. This time we chose Kosumo (古寿茂 海老名店) and their tori-paitan ramen. Old, overgrown, longevity...

Fujimatsu-san went with the tori-paitan miso.

And I went with the tori-paitan shoyu with extra chashu and an egg. I would like to say good things, but unfortunately I will remain silent. (Skip it!) When in Ebina, there's really only one place to go.

After work I stopped by Bassanova AGAIN...

They just started a Hiyashi Tom Yum, but I only had eyes for the green.

Fortunately, for those that are curious, this is the Hiyashi Tom Yum. Thanks momi!

It's actually quite good. I recommend you give it a try!

Chicken rush...

Day 568:

I don't know about these, but my shoulder is feeling a whole lot better than it used to.

Being that Wednesday's are now our biggest shikomi (prep) days (since the shop is closed), Fujimatsu-san and I decided to take a break and hit up a nearby ramen shop. Leaving the choice up to him, we wound up at Seisyomaru in ViNAWALK. Perhaps you remember my visit to the honten in Kyodo.

Anyway, Fujimatsu-san got the tsukemen (what they are known for).

And I once again went with the chuukasoba. Honestly, it tasted better than the honten.

BUT, the onions diluted the soup and towards the end I couldn't taste a thing. I tried adding more pepper but that didn't work either.

SiO with chicken!

Hi pops!

Monday night arm wrestling tournament at Bassanova!! Are you game?

Or are you chicken?
