My first proper meal back in Japan this week! Still trying to satisfy that tantanmen craving. My companion got spice level 2/3 and I got a 1/3 to compare. His was a MUCH prettier color, and in addition to being spicier, it also had more umami. That made it more satisfying, but the heat kind of masked the sweetness of the sesame.

Both were actually pretty spicy by Japanese standards, I think a 1.5 spicy would be about ideal. And both were nice, but at the end of the day, I think I honestly might prefer this storebought broth, because it has the exact balance of spicy, umami, and sweet that I'm envisioning when I'm craving tantanmen. I guess I'm lucky if I prefer the cheaper version!

幸楽苑の担々麺。ごま味噌が効いてておいしいけど、搾菜と山椒が入ってないので正統ではない。というか、落ち着かないので、店内BGMを以前のようにジャズに戻してほしい。あと、現行の醤油ラーメンは甘すぎなので、値上げでいいからクラシックを通常メニューに戻してほしい。

今日2月24日 遅めのランチは所用の帰りに萩中商店街にある麺屋うさぎさんへ。オーダーは温泉たまごセット（担々麺、温泉たまご、小ライス）、1100円。そして辣油4、痺れ4。それぞれ40円だったかな？ 麺は細めのストレート、スープはモミジ主体の白湯とのとこでトロッとしていますが軽めな感じ。 追加した4倍の自家製辣油、粒山椒は辛さも痺れも程よく汗が出まくりで(ﾟдﾟ)ｳﾏｰ 全体的に美味しいけど、おすすめどおり食べすすめたけどライスが少ないね。スープに浮く感じで一口あるかどうか？それと辛さはまぁほどほどなんだけど、スープにもう少し旨味というかなんかが足りない。 あと、お値段が1100円かぁ！と思った。 #麺屋うさぎ #麺屋うさぎ萩中 #担々麺 #温泉たまごセット #大田区ラーメン #萩中商店街 #麺スタグラム #麺 #tantanmen #noodles #tantannoodle (麺屋うさぎ) https://www.instagram.com/p/CpCPkpaSML6/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Yes, the bridge is beautiful. But if you ever go to Heidelberg, go to Min Ramen Bar. Fantastic japanese curry and tantanmen ramen. 11/10. Fantastic experience.

I had this awful craving for tantanmen around the end of the year (hazards of translating about them) and ended up buying a two-pack to make at home: Nissin's Queue-Worthy Restaurant-Style Tantanmen. I didn't want to get my hopes too high, but this was wonderful! Not just better than that sad restaurant but legitimately very good in its own right! I thought at first it was a matter of low expectations, but if anything, the second pack was even tastier.

The first photo is a standard tantanmen with ground meat and leafy greens, and the second is a meat-less (slash forgot-to-shop) version substituting crumbly scrambled eggs and shredded cabbage (plus some leftover menma). But that actually worked fine! If you have the choice, the creamy and spicy broth does go better with meat (or soy) than with egg, but it's nice to have options.

Anyway, definitely buying this again! I'd rate it higher than Soup No Tatsujin's tantanmen soup, but then again, that's maybe 1/3 the price, even without considering that it doesn't include noodles. In an ideal world, Nissin would start selling the soup alone so I could mix and match with cheap store brand noodles........

I like this one! It does taste like Tantan noodle. I’m not sure if I want to buy this again. But it’s good!
