I met my lovely girlfriends Stefanie Lin and Tracey today for a lovely dinner at Ippudo Ramen Sydney after a long day at work today! It is located on level 5 inside my favorite shopping mall - Westfield Pitt Street Mall. As usual, the queue to enter the restaurant was long and we waited about 30-45 minutes before getting a table inside. No reservations allowed. The wait was worth it as the ramen was extremely yummy! Since its recent opening, everyone was raving about its delicious ramen.
I tried their signature dish which was the Akamaru Shinaji - a 25 year old recipe that requires slow cooking over long hours to achieve a perfect emulsion of liquid and oil to create a thick broth of Tonkotsu ramen topped with special miso, garlic oil, pork belly, black fungus, soy bean sprouts and scallions. It costs AUD16 for the basic bowl but they charge extra to add an egg for AUD2 and for pork belly another extra AUD4. We also ordered a salad and gyoza. The gyozas were the best I've ever eaten in my life as it is cooked perfectly and tasted heavenly despite being a little small in size. Total bill came up to around AUD80 for the 3 of us girls. It's rather expensive for ramen but the quality of the food was excellent and service was friendly, attentive and warm. A beautiful restaurant with modern interior and delicious slurpy ramen which created a lovely dinner experience overall :)
What's a girls' night out without something sweet to end the night? We headed to Yogurt World just next door to have some delicious dessert. We were overloaded with frozen yogurt and loads of happiness! Sugar high! We also spent a long time choosing which flavors and toppings we wanted as there was a wide selection and more than 100 toppings! It is Australian produced, 97% fat free and free of additives so I guess it's quite healthy! Not too sinful too! Colourful and vibrant place to indulge in yogurt with great friends and company. Just AUD3.20 for every 100 grams based on weighing of the cup filled with your choice of yogurt and toppings. What a great enjoyment :)
