General Notes

---

Menya Kanemaru Golden Ramen is an ... interesting ramen shop. All things considered, they probably serve one of the worst ramen that I've had. Although that being said, I feel like it's hard for ramen to be _too_ bad and I did still end up finishing the whole dish. The other dishes that I tried (sample size: 1) were really good though. I will definitely not be returning for their ramen, but could be convinced to try some of their other offerings. And, one of the waitresses was really cute.

Dishes Tasted

• ★☆☆☆ Donabe Ramen -- spicy miso tonkotsu, 1pc kakuni, egg, menma, kikurage, arugula, tokyo negi, chili. This ramen was awful, probably one of the worst ramen I've had (that being said, I still finished it all -- it's hard for ramen to be that bad). The kakuni was so dry / tough, the other toppings except the egg were just not it, and the broth was mediocre.
• ★★★★ Cauliflower Tempura -- fried beautifully, perfectly cooked, and served with truffle salt. The truffle salt was a really nice touch. Loved this dish!
