The Food Diaries: KOPPU - Ramen Concept Food
Introducing The Food Diaries - sharing my food experiences through photographs and a few words.
A few weeks ago, I went to a ramen restaurant and it was a-ma-zing!
Koppu has been on my wishlist for sometime now and it did match the expectations I had.
For starters, we ordered some gyozas, tebasaki and shitake mushrooms.
I had the gyozas and they were perfect; the meat inside was juicy, the noodle/outer shell (whatever you call that part) was soft and it was overall a very good start to our meal. I also tried the tebasaki: fried chicken wings, the touch of sesame seeds and soy sauce made them delicious. (The comments on the mushrooms were also very positive.)
On to the main dish: ramen!! I had the tan tan men original ramen, the spiciest on the menu (I would have used a little tiny bit more spicy sauce but that's just me).
The noodles were perfect, the pork was very tasty and the broth was absolutely delicious!!! You can't go wrong with this one.
Then came the dessert. I am a complete and total fan of white chocolate and it is hard to come across decent desserts made with said chocolate. Naturally, when I saw a white chocolate mousse on the menu, my choice was made. But there was a twist: crushed wasabi-coated peanuts on top.
I love white chocolate (did I mention this already?) and this dessert was just perfect. The wasabi brings out the sweetness of the chocolate and the peanuts balance all the flavours, making it a very enjoyable end to what was a great dinner.
All dishes were delicious and I'll definitely be coming back.
