Small little place on a busy street in Queens where all clients seem to be regulars.  The place is packed and we’re sharing a long wood table, on the side of the window, with another couple.  The show kitchen, in the back, looks lay back and the general vibe of the place is pretty happy which is making me anxious to try my first ramen shop in New York.  The broth of their signature ramen dish is creamy, nicely salty and with a complexed umami flavour that made me drink almost the entire bowl… it’s rare, I’m tiny.

What Sodium Carbonate can do for you…

A delicious ramen bowl have been on my mind for days and my last experience, months ago, in New York is starting to feel like a distant memory.  I’m salivating to the thought of a delicious, silky and salty broth and the chewy texture of homemade noodles but my palate can barely grab on to this souvenir as days goes…
