Interesting fact: Tampopo means dandelion in japanese. this is a small noodle shop in the same plaza as Starbucks. For my entree I ordered spicy ramen. There wasn't a long wait for seats when we came on a Sunday afternoon. Leaving you can see racks of noodles ready to be boiled for the ramen.
I ordered the spicy miso ramen. My friends ordered the regular miso ramen. Their broths I tasted were pretty mild, plain an unexciting. My broth however turned out slighly better hint of spice with pork belly. The spicy miso had warming flavors, we were sad that they ran out of hirata buns to try. It would be nice if they had more appetizers. All in all it was decent for $10 but unmemorable.
