It was almost time for Deep to head back to England, so we definitely had to grab a lunch before he hopped on the plane. We'd been hearing great things about Ippudo so we headed there for a bite.
Ippudo has a very unassuming exterior, but is very warm and welcoming upon entering.
Everyone greets you as you walk past the main food bar in the middle to get a table.
The servers are extremely attentive and the food delivered promptly. DJ's friends had been raving about the pork buns, so he got an order of those along with a sampling of beer-battered fried chicken. He liked the pork buns, but wouldn't go back just for them. And the fried chicken was enjoyable - one can definitely taste the essence of the beer in the batter - but could have used a bit more seasoning.
Ippudo is known for their ramen, so both Deep and Mel opted for a bowl of warm, savory noodle goodness. Mel has been searching for a ramen as good as the one we loved from Kumo in our old neighborhood, and this indeed might be the winner!
Next time we need some heart-warming ramen, we know where to go. Thanks, Ippudo!
