number one

Today Malc rang me with some really good news from work, and to celebrate we went to Ichiban Boshi (Level 2 Galleries Victoria, 500 George St, Sydney ph 02 9262 7677 ), the best ramen shop in Sydney.

This restaurant is normally very crowded and there's no reservations. So, the recommended way is to grab a number from the front desk and then head next door to Kinokuniya for a few minutes of book browsing.

The ramen choice at this restaurant is pretty good - miso ramen, shiyo ramen, chashumen, negi ramen . . . . When Joanna & Javy were here, this was the only restaurant Javy wanted to return to. And judging from the queue, Javy is not the only one who wants to return to this restaurant again and again.

Tonigh, I had Tokyo ramen with roast pork, egg in soy-flavoured soup. The ultimate comfort food . . . actually when I'm feeling under weather, this ramen is about the only food I can eat.




Malc had his usual katsu curry, japanese-style crumbed chicken cutlet topped with curry on a bed of steamed rice. For a touch of authenticity, this dish comes side salad and pickled ginger.




And to top up the celebration, we passed by 85 degrees, a new cake shop in China town (more on it next time).

Was just about to say that the Katsu-curries were better than ramens at Ichibanboshi, but I see that Malcolm has good taste...!

dr shogo, you're just partial to katsudon because you had a lot of it during the thesis result wait.

say hi to Pres Chen Shui Bian when you meet him.
