NYC | Cozy Crab Udon for a Chilly Day

Nothing beats a steaming bowl of crab udon on a cold winter day—pure happiness in every slurp! 🍜❄️ ① Agedashi Tofu ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Silky Japanese tofu, lightly fried and served warm—simple, delicate, and utterly satisfying. 😌 ② Kani Ankake Udon + Mochi ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ The star of the show! 🦀 The thick, rich broth reminded me of West Lake Beef Soup—so comforting and flavorful. The crab and udon are a perfect match, and adding mochi is a must—chewy, soft, and absolutely delicious! 💖 ③ Gyutama Don ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A hearty bowl of tender beef simmered in savory sauce, served over perfectly cooked rice. Paired with fresh veggies, it’s a fulfilling and flavorful choice. 🐮🍚 ④ Hojicha Pumpkin Panna Cotta ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Made by Patisserie Fouet—a beloved Japanese dessert spot since my college days! 🎃🍮 Not too sweet, with smooth pumpkin custard, hojicha-infused caramel apples, and a touch of whipped cream. A delicate and nostalgic treat. 🍴 Raku East Village 📍 342 E 6th St, New York, NY 10003 #NYCFoodGuide #JapaneseCuisine #CozyEats #LifeInNYC #FoodieDiaries #UdonHeaven #IzakayaVibes #WinterComfortFood #NYCJapanese
