Japanese Ramen Shop in New York--Teppen Ramen
πTan Tan Men: Unlike the spicy Chinese version, their Tan Tan Men features a miso soup base made from a mix of pork bone and chicken broth, with the addition of ground pork that adds a rich and layered flavor to the soup. The handmade noodles are elastic and chewy, perfectly complementing the crisp and tender bean sprouts. I particularly enjoy the thick-sliced bamboo shoots, which are rarely found elsewhere and have a satisfying, meaty texture. π Maji Kara Teppen: Similar in taste to Tan Tan Men, but with a lighter broth due to the absence of meat. If you prefer a meatier option, this bowl comes with char siu, making it a great choice for those who want to indulge in meat. π’ Among the snacks, takoyaki (octopus balls) are always a safe bet! They are crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, generously topped with bonito flakes. Be careful, they can be hot when you eat them. Afterward, you can also order a slice of chocolate chestnut cake for dessert. π They also offer mini donburi dishes with salmon, beef, and other ingredients, all priced around $10. πTeppen Ramen 159 E 55th St, New York, NY 10022 #Teppen Ramen#New York# food diary
