Recently moved to San Diego area, I haven't got a chance to explore and don't know my way around...yet. With a craving for a hot bowl of ramen on a cool night, I searched yelp but the options are too many. Tajima Ramen House came recommended through Michael's {boyfriend} co-worker, and there the decision was made.
For appetizers, we had takoyaki {crave!} and mussels dynamite. Takoyaki were extremely good, big chunks of octopus with hot gooey insides, can compare to the time I had takoyaki a winter night in Osaka. The mussels... I am not a big fan of. Although they were well cooked, the taste of mayonnaise just wasn't that great on them.
Now came a nice size bowl of hot miso ramen I ordered. A sip of the broth then a huge smile on my face. The broth was creamy and very tasty, and it was exactly what I wanted. The ramen itself however didn't have that bite, that texture that I am looking for. Sadly the noodles were a bit too soft, but with such good broth, I will still come back for more. I am not too picky with food, but if I have to I can pick on many. I will say the egg in the ramen was too hard and the ramen was too soft. Perhaps it was just my bowl. Michael ordered tonkotsu ramen, and it was just wonderful. The broth was beautiful, and the ramen was good too. Well, I am excited to find more tasty food around the area.
