Cha Shu Ramen ($10)
Seafood Ramen ($10)

From Tampopo, a 1985 Japanese comedy film, on how you should eat ramen. 
First, observe the bowl. Appreciate its gestalt. Savor the aromas.
Concentrate on the three pork slices.
They play the key role, but stay modestly hidden.
Caress the surface with the chopstick tips.
To express affection.
Then poke the pork.
Gently pick it up and dip it into the soup
on the right of the bowl.
Apologize to the pork by saying,
"See you soon".
Finally start eating the noodle first.
While slurping the noodles, look at the pork.
Eye it affectionately.
Sipped some soup. Three times.
Sat up, sighed, picked up...
One slice of pork as if making an important decision in life
and lightly tapped it on the side of the bowl.
To drain it. 

Watch this video. It is really interesting. Don't you think that it makes you feel so hungry and would want to grab a bowl of ramen right now? The next time you eat ramen, you should try this method! Okay, maybe except the slurping part when you are in public!
